I too agree. IDE's are great once you know the language and whatever other tools are needed for the use of that language. But learning a language with an IDE is not a good idea. But if the beginner is using the IDE, there are many things that an IDE will do for us and hide and hide from us, and if something goes wrong the user will not have a clue about the real problem or how to solve it.

People who learn to develop code on things like eclipse etc. want the IDE to do almost everything. They never get used to things like referring to javadoc for what a method does. I have seen people who didnt know packages need to be arranged in a directory structure on the file system. They thought it was just a label. :-) Im not against eclipse, i think its fanatstic, but not for people who are learning to program. Notepad, vim are just fine.
