You're right some of the things in your list are missing - search and
replace is in there, indent is in there (highlight the code block and then
press tab), there is no page split and (thankfully?) no word wrap, no code
sweeper and no RDS (MM wont open it up) but the great thing about CFeclipse
is that its open source so who knows who will come along and implement all
those features in the next month. 

You can add bookmarks and descriptions to files which is a bit better than
line highlight, you can also type TODO and have items added to a todo list,
as pointed out help goes to livedocs which in my opinion is actually better
than the stale help available within cfstudio/homesite.

But there is also a code outline view which homesite does not have as well a
method view which lists all the methods for a cfc and allows you to jump to
the selected method.

I'ts not for everyone but give it a try I'm sure you'll get used to it. For
more info join the users cfeclipse mailing list @
http://cfeclipse.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectMailingListList
Or have a butchers at spike's blog
