It is the Macintosh SWT implementation that's "not ok". There is some
general performance problem, and (among other things) drag-and-drop is not
yet implemented.
Try this (I haven't):
1) Modify a Perspective as you like it using Eclipse on Windows.
2) Save that perspective.
3) Export the Eclipse settings (from Windows).
4) Import those setting to Eclipse on Macintosh.
Does anyone know if there will be separate SWT updates for Macintosh users,
or do we have to wait for the next Eclipse release?
