affects the netbeans integration modules..

it would be sort of cool, if the hudson integration would know about the
projects that are open and automatically add/remove instances of hudson based on
where the respective projects are being built.
The idea is that for example the Maven pom.xml file has a reference to the
hudson instance+job the project builds on. Thus the project's Lookup would
contain a class defined by the hudson integration that would tell the url to the
hudson instance and possibly other info. the hudson integration woould pick that
up from the opened projects and update the UI accordingly.

that way one would not have to manually setup hudson in the IDE but have it
always configured properly for the projects that are currently being worked on..

other possibilities include some actions in project's popup that would show the
job's status etc..
