Projects like Eclipse will always have "a lot more" because they have millions
of dollars of investment behind them.

And if you want to move your code to another IDE presumably it's difficult
because the metadata storing the project information is unique to each IDE.

Eclipse can use perspectives because it's an IDE, and no more: the user can't
suddenly decide to write an e-mail, read news or view images. I know
ECB uses dedicated windows just like gdb-ui.el to constrain the display, I'm
not sure that they would work well together. It may be a high return but I
don't think it's a trivial task to make something workable.

I don't think anyone would disagree.
