This release introduces source and binary incompatible changes to the plugin

adapted accordingly.

     or to ignore external modifications
   * Improved the general resizing behavior for small screen sizes

     on startup
   * Use the default encoding instead of system encoding for the editor when 
     choosing a file through the "Search results" pane
   * Reworked the projects pane
   * Made the welcome screen tabs into plugins, reimplement IWelcomePage 
     to add your own welcome screen page

     cmake)
