Geert,
While the starting/starting of Rife isn't really a function of Rife, we will want to be able to start/stop and embedded container, like Jetty/Tomcat, to allow us to control the Rife environment. (This would also allow for us to debug Rife applications.) That is what would be started and stopped. As for your ideas of visualizing a site and it's components, that is definately a reality. Working with local/remote servers would be available as well as Eclipse supports both.
JR,
Oliver and I have started discussion on this. The plan is to take the features of my WebLogic plugin, porting them to Rife and then integrating Oliver's plugin into it.
Oliver,
Debugging facilities are easy. My plugin already provides them. For the modeling of Rife, we just need to know what to model and if we want to model the actual breakpoints and visually view the app running somehow, the APIs already exist in Eclipse.
All,
This idea isn't a half baked idea. We have a very powerful and extendable IDE at our hands. We also have great developers with experience in all technologies involved. I do not see us having a problem with coming up with an idea and making it so.
Take care,
Jeremy

Yes, that was what I was thinking about too :-)
