Read...+ Write?

In a previous post I mentioned the possibilities opened up by having access to a C/C++ project's DOM AST within Eclipse. Now there's a new bugzilla in CDT to work on making this AST writable. Aside from the obvious benefit (aka "refactoring"), I can imagine a whole new bunch of neat features that can be made possible by this work: more intelligent C/C++ code generation, quick fix, among others.

Eclipse CDT is becoming more and more like the excellent JDT in terms of features and API, and this is great news for us C/C++ developers and Eclipse plug-in developers alike.
