I've commented this in the first mail: "the annotation view is a little 
stupid, as it uses the standard 
Messages output widget."

Of course that I don't want to show such information, nor full file 
paths.

The All Files is an overview of all annotations in every file. The 
Annotated Files shows only th filenames, thus making it much smaller 
and easier to overview to find what's annotated. The idea here is (as 
far as I understood Eric), that it will help team development. A team 
member could annotate a file and assign that the information is 
relevant for some other team members, and the others will get a list 
with the annotated files. The 3rd view would help this.

Where do I show only the first one?

Might be a solution.
