Huh ? Are we talking about the same spec, revision 1.17 from Feb 6 ? I 
can see only "Show" column with checkmarks, no roles, no alphabetical or 
"by role" sorting in the customizer.

Anyway, the user can not use generic resources customizer to inspect or 
set up classpath items, because:

- not all resource nodes correspond to things which can be put onto a 
classpath
- the order set in the customizer is irrelevant to real processing, 
especially for unrelated resource types. It is only usable for ordering 
the view.

In summary, your comment somehow missed the point of the whole preceding 
discussion.
