Paul,
This may be too ambitious a thought, but once you are going to the
trouble to implement a real parser for Java in JDE, it would make
sense to use this same grammar for identifying font-lock faces, imenu
(speedbar) index entries, and tags. I don't know if the interfaces to
all of these utilities in Emacs are general enough to allow you
replace the use of regexp's everywhere with your parser, but it seems
an appealing idea.
