One of my other proposals was to factor out the Java code assist, incremental compilation, and other cool stuff into its own plug-in so that other editors could integrate with this stuff.  Once this happens, then I think a JEmacs plug-in that integrates all the cool Eclipse JDT stuff would be very cool.  Having this refactoring would also enable the VI refugees who are in Eclipse-land to scratch their itch too. ;-)  (I'm personally an Emacs refugee, in case anybody couldn't tell ;-)
