The Eclipse IDE has some nice features.  Maybe CEDET gives us some of
them, but maybe we still lack some.

I saw it once, and it used tabs a lot for switching between different views.
We need to be able to do that too.

Also, one advantage of Eclipse's GUI interface is that it shows you a
lot of features when they might be useful.  So you don't have as much
to learn and remember.
