Description

I have many parameters in one context > 100 parameters.

 

The window is too small and can't be resized.
If resized it should remember the size when reopened.

There should be a filter box to filter parameters. The filer should work for name and value (and category see below).

Parameters should be grouped into categories. One paramter should be allowd to be in many categories. (compare hotmail where you can put an email into one folder and google mail where you can assign an email to many categories (google is better from this perspective))
I don't want parameters in folders for that reason becasue then a parameter can only reside in one folder.

A compare function between contexts for sandbox/dev/qa/prod environments would be great too.
