It's the little touches in the UI, that let me know ServiceNow Studio was designed by people who live and breathe ServiceNow Development. Like this little nugget: hovering over a file tab will pop down some useful information about the file.
Say I'm working on a script, and I want to call a function from a Scrip Include, chances are I already have the file open in another tab. If I can't quite remember the scope and class name, I can simply hover over the tab and copy it from the quick info. Table tabs display the logical table name, same for fields. System properties are another one where I'm constantly having to copy and paste. Along with these names the sys_id is also shown, and although you should avoid hard coding these, I find myself using these strings when testing inputs from subflows or functions.
So there you go, a simple yet thoughtful UI element to help make us more productive.
