If the reason you are hesitant to work with 2.8 is because you use 2.7.x with lift, I would point out that the 2.7.x plugin was designed for eclipse 3.4, while 2.8 is for 3.5, so it would anyway be a separate eclipse instance.
P.S. Does anyone have 2.7.5 working well in eclipse 3.5?

This sounds like quite a plausible diagnosis ... the IDE isn't
constructing the corresponding JDT type hierarchy completely/correctly
at the moment, and very likely that's frustrating searches which
depend on the type hierarchy.
Patches (against trunk if at all possible) which address that would be
very much appreciated, but failing that, a ticket on Trac so that this
doesn't get forgotten would help too.
Cheers,
Miles
