Mike, I user CFB / Eclipse for rmultiple clients all the time. You simply create a new project (File --> New --> ColdFusion Project) for each site that you are working on. In the navigator pane, you will see each project in a separate folder. I then create a working set under the filter drop-down (the little down arrow in the top right of the navigation pane) for each project. When I select a working set, it hides all my other project folders.
For CFC insight, you simply need to create a CFC Variable Mapping in the projects properties. Just right click on the project name and choose properties. From there, click on the CFC Mappings link and create the mapping. Once you have done so, you will get code insight for your CFC even if it is instantiated with ColdSpring. As for the preview button, I know I used to have it in CFB 2, but I don't see it in CFB 3. However, I have not created a server profile and assigned it to a project, that may make the difference. However, even when I had it in CFB 2, I never used it because I typically use a front-end controller, either a a full framework or a slimmed down one that I created, so the preview button didn't do me any good when working on an event action page since the page would error if not called through the controller. So I always just keep a browser open and tab back and forth between the browser and the editor. Hope this helps.
