Hi!

First, I want to thank the Qt Creator developers for their great work!  
I really like the speed/responsiveness of the ui, even with projects  
having 500+ files.  So far, Qt Creator is working great under Linux/ 
MacOS and has most of the needed features already implemented (or  
planed). Keep on rockin'!

Feature requests:
- display the name of the project file and the current version in the  
titlebar of qtcreator. As version, either use the revision from  
subversion/hg/...  or VERSION from the .pro file. This would be  
usefull when working with multiple project-files  (and different  
versions) opened.
- add something like "Open With"->"external application..." in the  
contextmenu within the project view, e.g. to open ui files outside  
QtCreator using the external designer.
- open files/groups in an external window for better use of multiple  
monitors (instead of splitting the current view)

Problem so far:
It seems like the code-completion does not work with external  
libraries referenced using an environment variable
   INCLUDEPATH += $(PRJDEPS)/include/libSomething
vs
   INCLUDEPATH += /projects/build/v1/include/libSomething  (working)

Regards,
   Franck
