That's what I thought. Eclipse for Java is still a really really good IDE which does everything. I think this is targeted towards the full stack engineers who occasionally move between IDE's.

Interesting. As a long time Visual Studio user, the clumsiness of Eclipse when forced on some projects was one of the things kept me backing away from a return to Java (back in my Java days, we used JBuilder).
IntelliJ is a much more polished experience.
I agree, but multi-team projects using Eclipse extensions made Eclipse mandatory :(.
IntelliJ is world class. Expensive, and world class.
