The file-based nature of IDEs makes it difficult to create and maintain a simultaneous view of code fragments. We propose a novel user interface metaphor based on collections of editable fragments called bubbles, which form concurrently visible working sets.

Interesting, don't think it's enough to make me quit IntelliJ-land though. (8 mins)
"Developers spend significant time reading and navigating code fragments spread across multiple locations. The file-based nature of contemporary IDEs makes it prohibitively difficult to create and maintain a simultaneous view of such fragments. We propose a novel user interface metaphor for code understanding and maintanence based on collections of lightweight, editable fragments called bubbles, which form concurrently visible working sets.
