some more features (no particular order and not complete):
* automatic discover of include paths (cmake)
* gdb debugger with pretty printing for qt classes
* easy launching/debugging executables directly from the project view
* fully integrated svn (the annotation view is very nice)
* powerful code navigation features (Next Use, Previous Visited Context)
* framework for supporting other languages
* oh, and I heart from an php plugin :D
I can create screenshots, just ping me if you need one. (eg. for php)
