Next Generation Eclipse IDE
I'm wondering why the "meticulous design" still looks like an explosion in a GUI widget factory.<p>In the screenshots I'm looking at, there are dropdowns inside panels inside tabs inside more panels. There are <i>five tab bars</i>. There are completely unnecessary icons for "cut", "copy", and "paste". There's a "Subversion" menu and a "Git" menu at the same time. There's... a user switcher? I don't even know what that means. The actual code takes up like 40% of the screen.<p>Is this actually what programmers want from an IDE, or just what they have come to expect?
