This language is from the people who work on intellij, so it should have good IDE support in intellij. I haven't tried it myself though.

Jetbrains frustrations with implementing Scala support in IntelliJ were at least part of the motivation for Kotlin.

Since they've designed it with tool support in mind from the beginning I expect Kotlin to seriously outstrip the other JVM languages in IDE integration.
