Let Goto Anything take focus from Find, replace
Currently, it is impossible to open any Goto menu while the find feature has focus. To my knowledge, the control key serves no function while the find pane has focus. Pressing Control-P, etc should open the Goto bar, but does nothing instead.
Conversely, you can open the find bar while Goto is open, but it leaves the Goto bar open.
Additionally, using a Goto-specific shortcut will close a current Goto bar, rather than switching to the Goto-specific variation.
I recommend that any opening any Goto, Find or Replace bar would first close any existing Goto, Find/replace bar. Much like the Replace bar closes Find and opens Replace and vice-versa.
Additionally, I recommend that the shortcut commands that open a searching feature (goto, find, replace, etc) not be used to close the feature. Sometimes collisions between using multiple search features put you in a state where you think you're doing a Find, but you've actually just closed find and are now typing your search into the file you're editing, etc. Escape is a good universal way of exiting a pane.
Typo on ST3 API documentation
I belive I found a typo in the ST3 API docs:
set_async_timeout(callback, delay)
should be:
set_timeout_async(callback, delay)
Opening a folder from the command line should focus on the existing window if that folder is already open in Sublime.
HTML DEcode special characters - there is encode already, but decode will be also useful
Will be good to add also decode to this.
Better Open File / Goto Anything

Organizing currently open files in folders / groups
It would be nice if you could organize the currently open files in folders or group them together in the upper bar.
Sometimes I need to work on several projects, i.e. to get some source code from one project to include in another.
This feature would help you to stay organized and have an overview over all of the projects you are working on.
The feature could look something like this:
Maybe this feature could also be included into the side bar:
Show user that a file loads in the background
It would be nice to show the user that it's being loaded in the background by e.g. dimming the view and perhaps showing a waiting cursor.
One could say that if a load process needs more than one second to finish, the view should signalize it's background activity in some way.
PS When loading such a file it grows to about 160MB - TM had taken about 700MB. I'm very happy about this difference including background loading.
Chinese Input for Mac is broken under Full Screen mode
Hi, I'm testing sublime text 2 and find it's a great text editor. However there's a bug of inputting Chinese character on Mac. Input Chinese in sublime text 2 on Mac has no problem at the beginning, however after I switch to full screen mode or distraction free mode, I can't input Chinese anymore, even if I switch back to normal mode.
To describe the problem more clearly, I think it's better to explain how we input Chinese. We type Latin alphabet, the input method accept them and list many possible Chinese phrases according to what we type. After we make a selection, the input method "paste" what we select into the text editor. So the input method act like a buffer between our inputs and the text editor. Now if I switch to the full screen mode, the buffer seems to disappear. What I type immediately go to the text editor so what I get is latin alphabetic instead of Chinese characters.
Trim trailing spaces before adding new line at end of file
Currently if you have ensure_newline_at_eof_on_save AND trim_trailing_white_space_on_save enabled the following can happen :
if the last line of your file is a space, ST2 will first honor ensure_newline_at_eof_on_save and add a new empty line at the end of the file. Then it will honor trim_trailing_white_space_on_save and trim the (now) last-but-one line.
Result : you now have 2 empty lines at the end of your file
Expected result : 1 empty line at end of file.
Way to fix this : Honoring trim_trailing_white_space_on_save BEFORE ensure_newline_at_eof_on_save or just don't add a new line if last one is space only and trim_trailing_white_space_on_save is enabled.
It is a minor bug but it annoys me a lot.
Minimap markers
Show a clear marker on the minimap by adding specially formatted comments in your code. This allows you to put landmarks in your code that are easily visible from the minimap. This can be particularly helpful with large files that have several distinct sections.
A simple comment format would be nice. A suggestion is:
//@
Being able to individually color the markers would be nice as well. Something like:
//@ #FFCC00
Hide tabs bar if only one file is opened
Vintage mode: insert a character multiple times
In vim command mode, typing [esc] 50 i # [esc] would insert 50 of the "#" character wherever the cursor is, but this doesn't work in ST2 with Vintage and VintageEx enabled. It would be awesome if it did!
Bold/Italic should be supported for proportionally spaced fonts
Bold and italic font styles in colour schemes currently seem only to work for monospaced fonts (at least in ST3 build 3021). This makes proportionally spaced fonts very much second-class citizens. (I greatly prefer using proportionally spaced fonts for editing text.)
word wrapping issue
When the last character of the line is a bracket or a period, instead of going to the new line together with the word immediately preceeding, it goes all alone to the new line. This is very annoying and has been around for some time (see also here: http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5214 )
I'm using the latest build of Sublime Text 2 (2210).
I hope somebody fixes this soon or I'll have to find another editor.
Better split window layout control
Coming from VIM, I got used to being able to do arbitrary window splits. For instance, I'd do a vertical split, then in the right window a horizontal split, giving me 3 views into my files. It would be amazing to have this feature in Sublime.
can't build/run python script if there is unicode character in the patch
Move the "Remove all folders button" and provide F5 refresh on individual folders
"Refresh all folders" is dangerously placed next to "Remove all folders". All I want to do is refresh a single folder not set myself back 20 minutes.
Maybe add right-click refresh on individual folders and move the refresh all folders next to something less destructive?
