I made the switch to jetbrains a while ago, but the one feature i really really miss is the absolute to focus on a set of files and resources and hide all the other unrelated code.

Mylyn alone makes me go back every now and then, but eclipse is just too bloated and unpredictable

I think you can achieve this by creating a "Scope" and filtering to it in the Project view.

IMO you won't miss it in the long run. IntelliJ is good enough to not require such an interface to keep you focused. There is a similar feature, but I never used it.
