I wish JetBrains looked exactly into that, and deliver one IDE with above (^^^).

I don’t since you end up with either complex configuration to surface language specific tasks. Having well thought out defaults, tools, etc by separating them out into different IDEs allows for ease of use you couldn’t get with one IDE to rule them all approach. Yes, they sell different IDEs that share a large core but I think the incentives are well aligned for sustainable business focused on developer satisfaction.
Nah. Would have to disagree on this front. These should still work. After all each language/runtime is defined by some underlying template (for example in Visual Studio - .vcxproj for C++, .csproj for C# in .NET, etc.). I don't see reason all of this to work under one Umbreall IDE, even if I have to pay more for it - I'd rather pay for it, than the bundle I'm getting now.
if you use intelliJ ultimate edition you have official plusing for all languages for ex: I work on golang, scala, python and JS using intellij ultimate.
I have to look again, but I don't think C++ and Rust were available from there...
There is an Intellij official plugin for Rust.
