Hello,

In your list, the only thing you won't be able to do with Eclipse is
executing clojure forms in the context of the breakpoint.

My advice: don't try to learn too much at once. Eclipse+counterclockwise
(and probably Intellij+La Clojure) lets you start right away hacking
clojure. They are specifically designed to be newbie friendly   Postpone
the decision of  becoming an emacs ninja to when you feel ok with clojure
and you feel that you lack customization power (if ever).
