We're actually looking into adding more functionality
into gIDE, and PonG seems like a nice thing to add.
We're trying to do most of the inter-operation using
bonobo though, so George, if you have a few minutes...
;-) At this moment the debugger and the editor are
already separate bonobo components.
Disclaimer: I haven't tried PonG yet, so I can't make
a real judgement.

True. But there are as many ideas about the 'perfect
IDE' as there are people... And many people want one
but few are actually willing to help implementing it.
