I'm happy to see more and more IDEs support other languages, since nowadays it's quite common to use more than one language in a project. I'm especially happy to see PHP support.
I'd like to correct 2 errors in your article. You said: "... using one of the Java PHP implementations, such as Coucho...". First, the name is 'Caucho' and not 'Coucho.' Second, the product is not called 'Caucho' but, rather, "Quercus." "Caucho" is simply the name of the company that makes Quercus and Resin.
What I'd like to see next is a push toward making use of PHP as a view template language. JSP, Velocity, FreeMarker, RIFE templates: they're all variations on the same thing. With Quercus, you can completely replace JSPs with PHP templates, for example, and have (a.) a faster code-test-debug cycle, and (b.) better debugging support.
