I fully support this.
The situation is that if you want a fully integrated, sophisticated 
environment, you have a choice of using GPS, Eclipse+GnatBench (only in 
Pro now), Eclipse+Aonix (soon).

The value of Emacs is that it is basically an editor, for those who 
don't like to have their screen real-estate full of useless windows, 
with just the size of a post stamp for editing. Let's keep it this way!
