I'm wondering if you can do something similar to this functionality (available with Zend Studio 5.1) in Eclipse. There is an image of it in action here: http://tinypic.com/r/2d1pao1/6

As you can see, it doesn't just put a box around the starting brace like Eclipse does, it actually shows you the declaration. This is especially handy when you have a really long declaration and don't want to scroll up and find its beginning.

+2  A: 

Actually, you already have a variant of that with the outline view

If you click anywhere in a function (end of curly brace or anywhere else), the outline view will... outline the relevant function where you are in.

Otherwise, you need a plugin like Eclipse Source Helper
