As people say, eclipse plug ins must be written in Java; so I wouldn't expect it to be trivial. The Flex Compiler is Java, right? I wonder if you could hack apart the Flex compiler to create Java bytecode instead of a swf? Sounds difficult, but theoretically possible. I wonder if you could somehow embed the flash player in your plugin, and use that to display a swf? I wonder what the licensing violations would be for that one. Definitely an interesting challenge.

Although I must I agree I could continue to live without it - Flex Builder's Design view already has Properties view for the selected component on the Stage and I am very very rarely using it. And I would rather agree - such a plugin for Flex Builder can be written only using Java. I like the idea of this plugin, reminds me Visual Basic or Delphi IDE similar functionality.
