I would shell out 50 bucks to anyone writing an eclipse plugin replacing the less thans and greater thans with angle brackets where appropriate (i.e. generics). I tried to once, but could not find a monospaced font that had angle brackets and my own made it look worse than plain Java. Maybe it can't be done in an aesthetically pleasing manner.
