Being told to "trim" every source I open isn't something I'm going

I wouldn't be happy with it either. And while I agree to an extent
with some of the other folks that "trimming is easy" and thus might
not be the most fruitful thing for the RDi developers to work on;
there is also the other side of the coin, which is that since
"trimming is easy", then in principle, the RDi developers should be
able to put it in quickly, if they were so inclined.

But, the reality is that you're unlikely to get your wish anytime
soon, if ever. So in your shoes, my thought would be to try to work
around it using editor macros and/or hotkeys. By editor macros I mean
there's surely some kind of scripting capability that RDi itself
provides. If that turns out not to be enough, then there are
third-party options like AutoHotkey. With some fiddling and some
programming (but hopefully not as much programming as building your
own Eclipse plug-in), you can probably shoehorn the "open and trim"
functionality into your workflow such that it's no more work than just
a plain "open".
