(If this violates the site rules on promotions, please delete it and I apologize for the hassle. I am not affiliated with the
Kickstarter project team, Kickstarter, or the Eclipse project.) There's a kickstarter to make an Eclipse version that's simpler and easier to use:

The video for the promotion only has a few ideas, but I like the idea of a unified search bar for everything. I also like the idea of a two layer bar with most views pre-set.
I know it's popular to call Eclipse heavyweight and bloated, but
provided I give it tons of memory to play with it definitely does speed my development up far faster than it slows it down.
