I amazed SWT is even uglier and slower than these new JDKs which I personally 
can't use.

Would it be easy to do QtJava and Koala KDE java project templates for 
Eclipse? There is one in KDevelop, so it might be possible to adapt that - it 
has placeholders for the classnames, which get replaced with the actual 
classname when you start a new project. It should be a matter of replacing 
the placeholders in the sources with whatever Eclipse has as an equivalent. 
What if you do a plugin or template - do they accept patches and put them in 
their cvs, or would we need to maintain it in kdebindings?
