Open Browsed Source Member for Edit

When browsing a source physical file member with LPEX, right-click on the member name tab brings up a menu with these options: Close, Close Others, Close all. Add a fourth option, such as "Open for Edit", to close the browse window and re-open the member for edit.


Use Case:

I prefer to browse members in order to avoid inadvertently changing them or saving them unchanged, which would give them new timestamps. When working on a project, I may browse a member for reference, then realize that I need to change that member.

    If using RDi on a member pressing C-S-G will toggle between Browse and Edit.

    Although the theme of this request is consistent with our business strategy, it is not committed to the release that is currently under development.
