Open in S3 Bucket Editor fails about aws-toolkit-eclipse

[CreativelyMe]

Update: The S3 Bucket Editor does work, but it requires the following:

1. Set Perspective to AWS Management
2. Open Tab by clicking on AWS Icon in toolbar on left

I think this is a wish list item rather than an issue, but some user feedback - even just an instruction message on what to do would provide a much better experience.

That said, I received a null pointer exception after progressing to the next step of selecting an object in the listing:

The usability wishlist item remains, but I'm going to close the issue. Exception logging is on, so the null exception above has been logged and I'm sure it will be addressed as time permits.
