First off...thank God that JetBrains is doing this.  I can't freakin' wait for them to finish it!  I wouldn't even care if they charged extra for it.

The linked page for non-grails stuff is for the Eclipse plugin.  Did you want us to add our ideas to that page or just post them here and you'll create a new IntelliJ page?  It might be confusing adding stuff to the eclipse plugin page for features that the eclipse plugin already has when we're starting with a clean slate for the IntelliJ plugin.

Hello my friends,

As you may already know, the nice guys from JetBrains are currently
working on offering an Open Source plugin for Groovy and Grails for
the lovely IntelliJ IDEA.

I spoke to one of the JetBrains guys, and we thought it'd be nice to
provide a detailed list of features that should be provided by a
Groovy and Grails plugin.

There are already two pages on the topic:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GRAILS/IDE+Integration+Proposal
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GROOVY/GroovyEclipse+Wish+List

It would be great if everybody could flesh out these wish lists and
complete them as much as possible by adding all the features you'd
love to have in your IDE to help you "develop with pleasure" and be
even more productive with Groovy and Grails.

Don't hesitate to put simple ideas as well as crazy ideas! :-)
Imagine having all the IntelliJ refactorings and intention actions
available for Groovy code? Imagine all the cool code completion and
code navigation possibilities?
Imagine having a bidirectional Entity Relation diagram interface to
model your domain classes in Grails? GSP syntax highlighting, with
code completion for custom tags as well as for gstrings?

Go ahead! Unleash your creativity!
Feedback on the list and on the wiki most welcome.

:-)
