Wolfram Workbench and Mathematica Help System

I find the Wolfram Workbench a nice environment for Mathematica development.

However, as I program in Mathematica, I need to navigate the Help System very often.

The Workbench provides a tooltip tool that shows a very basic help for the Mma functions (just the usage messages), and is not enough for my usual needs.

So: Is there a way to bring up and navigate the whole Mma Help System from inside the Workbench?

Alternative solutions are also welcome. Re-entering the function name in a notebook and pressing F1 is not :)

By highlighting the function and pressing Ctrl+Shift+/ a Web Browser pops up and shows the appropriate Wolfram's help page on the Internet.

The question is still alive, as it should be better to show up the local Help System.
