That would be a step in the right direction. Lots of stuff should be
preconfigured and made as newbie friendly as possible to attract more
users (and consequently more developers).

Here's a video demo of one of the competitors language support  to which

http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/training/demos.html


Even if this level of integration is not attainable given the current
developer resources, something like this should be offered and configured 
by default, so the user has the feeling he gets at least a partially
comparable feature in the default install.
