Someone on irc mentioned also:

How should an IDE like PHPeclipse best support this frameworks?

For first steps one could for example:
* based on an existing Eclipse SQL plugin create scaffolding wizards
for these frameworks.
* create wizards which generate the general project structures layout
* fast switch between a "controller" file and a corresponding view file
* add templates suitable for this frameworks.
I'd add the ability to define a 'quick open' group of files.

Problem:
Specific areas of a site generally require a group of files, often in different folders/locations.

Being able to open, say, 5 files with one click would be great, esp in maintenance of a site.

Proposed:
Store the relationships between files. Allow the user to define a group of files together with a keyword/name. For example, my user registration may have many files, controller, view, other class modules, etc. Opening 'user reg' opens all the files associated with user reg.

I think that having framework support in an IDE is where the real power of both the language/platform and the IDE lie. The problem is that it becomes VERY framework specific.
