Suggestions view is too dynamic for me. I always set the "on edit delay" 
to something like 1 min.
Hopefully TTV will be rewritten and it solves the problem.

- pmd submodule is very useful
- I also wrote a i18n submodule that checks not internationalized 
strings in the code.

All of them should be duplicated in the editor.

- After the rewrite of the build system something like compiler submodule
  would make a lot of sense.
- paint error marks directly on the editor's  scrollbar as IntelliJ Idea 
does
    (Tim Boudreau's module already does this).
- After the java/mdr module is ready we could use it to generate suggestions
