I don't generally use Eclipse myself, but the Java world seems to be
unable to develop software without using an IDE.  Usually one of
Eclipse, NetBeans or IntelliJ IDEA -- these being the three market
leaders.  There is an important issue here:  IDE users often don't know
how to use the command line!  Actually this is increasingly true, hence
the rise of Tortoise(Svn|Bzr|Hg), RapidSvn, Olive-GTK, etc.

I would suggest that bzr-eclipse, bzr-netbeans, and bzr-intellijidea are
going to be critical to the take up of Bazaar. (Along with TortoiseBzr
and Olive-GTK.)

Sun have already integrated Mercurial into NetBeans.  So without some
form of Bazaar plugin, there will be a loss of take up of Bazaar in the
NetBeans user community.
