Changing method icons priorities in nautilus

Hi,

is it a good idea to have the test icon have higher priority than overrides (is overriding parent method/the method is overriden by a child)

Because the state of the test is also available from:

1) the test class itself

2) TestRunner

(and one of the two I will have open regardless)

And often a method affects more than one test so the icon is not representative of the state anyway.

On the other hand if I want to reach the overriden method it's much harder because I have to open new browser, click on the class, find the method.

So would it make sense to swap the priority?

There's long standing issue in the tracker with having multiple icons per method, but resolving that from UI perspective is perhaps not as easy...

(The remaining priorities seem ok... higher number = more important)

I agree with you.
