Want to be more productive with IDEA?

If you want to be more productive with IDEA, Patrick Lightbody has a good suggestion in IDEA Live Templates: more powerful than you think. Now where's the list of the built-in live templates? Does Eclipse have a similar feature?

Settings -> Live Templates
Too simple? Have I misunderstood the question?

Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Editor -> Templates
You use them with CTRL+space as normal completion, so you don't have to remember the tab key :-)

Eclipse webtools added a lot more template support. You can now ctrl-space in xml, html, css etc., The java feature has been around for several releases.

I don't think Eclipse's live templates are as powerful as IDEA. The expressions that you can enter are much simpler. For example, you can't indicate what package a type should come from. If I use the "for" template to insert an iteration, I always have to import the Iterator. Of course, CTRL+SHIFT+O makes that easy. It certainly doesn't seem possible in Eclipse to indicate that a proposed value is assignable from a particular class, like the example with IDEA shows.
