Well, in this case I would appreciate to find included, the language reference 
and library docs
specific to the embedded compiler version as we get with the standard 
distribution.

---
We ought to know also the compiler version number, to know where we are in the 
version changes log,
if a specific bug  has been resolved in our version or a specific feature is 
available,

so the plugin should have, in my humble opinion, the plugin version number 
followed by the compiler
version.

---
Finally, some people may want, in the future, to stuck to a specific version to 
recompile an old
library, so it would help to find a description on how to substitute the 
compiler with an older
version.

---
By now, the documentation is what I lacks the most.

You could pack the docs in a zip file where the scala-compiler.jar and 
scala-library.jar are found.

---
Till now I have been developing with JEdit with the Console and ErrorList 
plugins.

The Eclipse Scala plugin, with the Content-Assist, will be a step forward.

Cheers!
