Description
Originally submitted to Google Code by @mikahanninen on 10 Sep 2012
If something was added by mistake into External Resources it can't be removed without RIDE restart.
Implement 'remove' action which removes file from the RIDE, but leaves it intact in the file system.
The same applies into other parts of tree dialog also. Maybe it would be good to have an option to remove file from the project (ie. having resource/test case files in the directory without them being in the RIDE).

Research direction
Start with the External Resources entry and the other tree-dialog actions to find how files are added and represented in RIDE. Implement a remove action that removes the file from the project view without deleting it from the file system, then check whether the same behavior should apply to resource and test case files.
