Being in Debug View, and after program termination, switch back to Java View in Eclipse

Question

I am looking for a way to come back to the standard Java View in Eclipse after the application I'm debugging is over.

Is it possible to accomplish that? That is the default behaviour in some other IDEs (Visual Studio, for instance) and I'd prefer to have it that way. It's so boring to have to go an manually switch the view again to the initial one :(

Thanks

Eclipse is a generic platform where you can have a dozen type of different launch configurations, so a good and usable 'generic' implementation of this feature is not trivial.

However, there is an open bug report for this feature, which has some activity recently so there is a chance that this feature will be included after Eclipse 3.7.
