This contrast makes no sense to me. The magic of Eclipse is that it has 
provided a generic platform  for a variety of purposes. So all the 
traditional users of Eclipse are IDE nerds.

I presume the e4-RCP folks develop their software on Eclipse, so they 
too are IDE nerds.

So all Eclipse committers are 'IDE nerds' and the IDE experience has 
been demonstrably degraded (attachment 206371 for bug 362718).

I feel strongly that we must revert to 3.x as the promoted environment 
until 4.x can reduce it's measured degradations to perhaps 10%.
