This is of course true. Unfortunately though, Grails support is not in the community edition, which is where the majority of requests to us on which IDE to pick come from ... I should probably have been clearer, as this is where GGTS tends to get it's users from, in my experience.
It might be nice to have somewhere/ somehow to think about the IDE integrations for the broader groovy community. Not sure if that's something you want to have related to the Groovy project at apache, but it seems like a natural place. Some obvious place to add, for example, explicit Ratpack, gpars, Geb (etc) support into IDEs. David.
