If we get Eclipse to work on Haiku, that would be hard to beat, even with
a native solution.


IMO Eclipse is one of the worst IDEs out there, and porting AWT is no easy
task.
I'll have this one in a usable state within a month or two, it already can
build itself :)

Actually Eclipse uses its own toolkit different from AWT, so you'll have
to port even more stuff.
(although I think someone started doing it, can't recall who)

Ingo started porting SWT, but abondoned the effort after realizing that our Interface Kit needs too much work.

Best regards,
