Please vote for this bug: https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-18487.
Dev should be made simpler in now the 4th release of FB but there are still numerous areas where FB is terribly lacking in comparison to Java development in Eclipse.

If you are looking for a good piece of software for bug tracking, I highly suggest looking at Axosoft’s OnTime. I last used the 2006 version and had numerous issues with it. My biggest issue was licensing. For a small, growing shop, at the time, with contractors coming in and out I didn’t want to keep buying licenses for every contractor that wasn’t a steady contractor. Without that issue, the desktop and web versions were a bit slow at times.
Well, 2008 has fixed the issue of slowness. It is really fast, in comparison, and still very easy to use/setup. The web version is AMAZINGLY better than ’06. It was pretty bad in 06: very slow, not as slick, everything was a refresh (no ajax), etc. I just installed the ’08 Web and I’m pleased.
Anyways…I’m not going to give a feature-by-feature review but thought I’d let folks know they might want to take a look.
Watch the videos and you’ll get a good feel for several of the great features OnTime provides.
BTW, it is “Totally Free” for a single user.
