Eclipse isn't unique that way.
My point is that user experience is so important to our success, we
need to be sensitive to the issues our users are facing. There are a
lot of such issues marked WONTFIX, and CDT is as guilty of that as
anyone. I'm just wondering how we fix it.
As a committer, I'd be selling the community needs to BigCorp
management. If BigCorp's products are built on Eclipse, and Eclipse
comes to have the reputation of "suck", then BigCorp's products will
inherit that. Since the users of today are the managers of tomorrow,
these managers won't purchase products that are based on "suck".
I'll do my part here: I think the eclipse.org website (including the
Bugzilla UI) is starting to suck, and I've already begun selling the
idea to the powers that be. Not that they need much convincing :)

New comment on "Eclipse smells kind of dead"???.
Actually, I think it is awesome feedback, since there are only a
handful of issues that seem to raise the anger levels.
I was able to trace a few of the top items to some old bugs:
File out of sync:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=228039
Line numbers on by default:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=191154
Those bugs are fairly old and both are closed WONTFIX. It would be
interesting if they could be reopened for discussion.

Interesting post. Maybe even worst than bugzillas that get no answer
are general complaints about Eclipse/Projects that never were raised
as issues. That's why this Website, as painfull as it is, provides
very interesting feedback http://www.ihateeclipse.com/
We may have to think about a better way for end-user to raise such
"feelings" (maybe an amazon-like rating system which would allow to
very quickly rate from 0 to 5 stars a feature or a project).
