pydev syntax highlighting python builtins

Question

Is there any way to make Eclipse/PyDev highlight the Python built-in functions?

For example, the Python IDLE highlights int() or list() but PyDev doesn't.

I'm using Eclipse 3.7.1 and PyDev 2.2.3.

Currently that's not really possible in PyDev. Please enter a feature request for that. See: http://pydev.org/about.html for details on where to report it...

Thanks Fabio. I've made a search, and it have already been requested. Is there any way to vote on that request or something to make it have higher priority if more people want it?

I don't think you can vote in the SF tracker, but please add a comment saying 'I want this too' :)

This is definitely a useful feature because I just happened to use list as the first argument for a dictionary get, instead of list_id and since there was no syntax highlighting of built-ins, did not realize my bug until much later. Unable to add 'I want this too' to that feature request
