Existing Eclipse features – such as the internal sytax checker and debugger – use the feature of Eclipse to put annotations (see Preferences > General > Editors > Text editors > Annotations) to the source code. Such should be implemented for this plugin also.
The location where a bug was discovered should be underlined and with an appropriate line bar image (there already exists a yellow and red bug icon :grin: ), while the BugPathEvents should be annotated in a different fashion (consider it like a distinction between warning and error).
Another feature would be effectively writing to the source code window's rectangle. First, a tooltip for the bug event should be implemented (having to stretch the window to read the bug's description is way too obtuse), but a really good solution would be adding comments directly into the visible source code — just like how the web GUI does it.
