I've been running CFBuilder standalone with my other common plugins added to that install as my main setup since day one, across 1.0 and 2.0 versions. Works great. The only problem I've had is that some of my more advanced plugins won't install in a bare CFBuilder install because of dependencies on a number of other Eclipse bits and pieces. However, due to the work I do with those plugins, it's actually easier to have separate Eclipse instances with specific sets of plugins for certain projects (notably the Scala IDE plugin).
Right now I have CFBuilder 2 (an awesome upgrade BTW) with EGit and CCW (Clojure IDE plugin). I have a separate Helios install for working on Clojure itself (with EGit, CCW, Maven support and a bunch of other stuff) since I'm a committer on the clojure.java.jdbc library. I have another, older Eclipse install for working on Flex and JBoss projects. I find that having separate Eclipse setups works better if you have really complicated project setups, rather than trying to have a one size fits all Eclipse install with every plugin known to man...
