If these backends are added via the mediator-interface of semantic then =
ECB can use all these new backends out of the box!=20
Suggestion: imenu should also a new backend for semantic - currently =
parser of some languages is only implemented by imenu (at least only =
near-time parsing, which means changes in the code-source can =
immediately result in adapted content-overviews in the methods-window - =
with etags and similar backend this is not so easy!
