This has been a big worry of mine for a while. If people just learnt how to code java according to the sun standards life would be so much easier. For example writing "this." for static members is just bad bad bad. Thay have no "this"! But then to pester the Intellij team about it is just scary. And who cares what the icons on the project panel look like!?! The product is amazing and the icons are so far down a non-existent list of issues that it stuns me at the amount of wasted time that goes into discussing it. There are only two ways around these problems.
1) Learn to code properly.
2) Adapt your bad coding style to the correct way of doing things and you'll find Idea is actually perfect. If you can't adapt well.....

There have been some good ideas that have come on this
list, but there have been a lot of bad ones. Remember
people, *I WANT TO USE THIS PRODUCT TOO*. I may not
want to use your perticular non-standard idiotic
naming convention that some monkey in your department
came up with because it allowed him to keep his code
looking as similar to
VB/Scheme/C++/Efiel/COBAL/{insert other language here}
as possible so that his pea-sized brain might have a
chance at understanding what is going on. IntelliJ has
delivered a FANTASTIC product in the past, and I'll
bet a lot of money they will continue to develop an
amazing product in the future. Lets just let the team
focus on doing what they do best, writing a kickass
IDE, and spend less time reading inate attempts at
migrating us to your lame coding conventions.
