I'd love to see an Eclipse tool for Zope.

Some other key features:
    - context-sensitive auto-completion in ZCML
    - understanding of interfaces (pylint)
    - launching and restarting of zope

This would be really nice.  If a view like this was made into an
editor, a developer could (if they didn't want to use the source)
graphically add and manipulate the registrations.  That would be
slick.
