Ben, If this is a real issue, show stopper etc, head over to cfeclipse.tigris.org, register and add this as an issue in the issue tracker (if it isnt there) We are working our way through the bugs.
One thing that I have to say is that saying "I have hit a road block that is fairly significant in terms of productivity" is a bit of an exaggeration surely? Since we have limited resource would you like me to stop working on current features to fix this? Personally I have maybe lived with this issue for 2 years without really being bothered by it... but if it is "road block" for you I shall see what I can do.
