If click within symbol browser may switch Projects tab

If you have the configuration Editor Setting of "Synchronise Editor with Project Manager" set to true then when you switch between open files, the Project Manager moves to display the current file.

This is ok, however if you have the Symbols browser docked within the Project Manager (as a Tab), and you double-click on a symbol that displays a new file within the editor, this results in a bad UI behaviour - the Symbols browser is then hidden behind the Project Tab.

Note: This is a fairly minor cosmetic item.

Solution : on change of file within the editor, do not force change of display to the Project Tab. However there is a context menu on the editor of "Show file in the project tree", and if this is clicked then _do_ change display to show the Project Tab.

I have submitted Patch for this bug - patch # 003556

Solution in patch is to only switch to Project Tab (within the Project Manager panel), when required.

This avoids clunky UI behaviour.
