Why? Any "intellisense" capability requires creation of a completion
database "compiled" from the source code. Every time you create or modify a
source file, the database has to be updated to permit completion. The JDE
uses the current classpath as the completion database. Compiling a source
file updates the completion database. I don't see the benefits of a
specialized completion database justifying the huge amount of development
work required to design and implement it.
