ok, I wasn't totally clear then... I would also favor an openAPI that would have modules like: * Ant Support * JUnit Support * Version Control (CVS, VSS, whatever) * Audits * something else cool...
Support for turning on/off these modules is a must also. I think this would help slow down the growth of IDEA and reduce potential bloat from unused features. I too love IDEA because of it's amazing editing prowess, and while I would like to see some of the formentioned items, I would GLADLY trade them for keeping IDEA "on target" as the most kickass editor out there.
