<rant> It seems that many people step up on their soapbox and proclaim that <insert tool here> does not perform <insert personal requirement here>. The problem that Adobe is trying to solve is a rather large one. The CF community has a very diverse user base, ranging from seasoned application developers familiar with low level languages requesting tools available in those languages to hobbyists who want a WYSIWYG environment. We are a large and diverse group, both in terms of skills and requirements. I believe that some people need to realize that their personal must have feature is not necessarily even needed by other developers within this community. There is no one "right" answer to this very challenging problem, but I am happy that Adobe is attempting to craft an IDE that will address all of our needs.
</rant> My personal hope is that Adobe will develop an Eclipse based solution so that we as a community can leverage the existing tools that exist for the platform and do not need to rely on Adobe to provide every tool that we can dream up. Mark has done an amazing job with CFE, but at the end of the day, he is still just one man. With the weight (and money) of Adobe behind an Eclipse based tool, we would all be very much better off IMHO.
