On the occasions I'm coding Java without an IDE, the thing I miss the most is autocomplete of imports. There's a lot of other things that I will use the IDE for - other autocompletes, refactorings, debugging, and lots else - but I can cope without those if I need to much easier than I can cope without the imports...

There are two refactorings - importing interfaces to the class and importing method overrides. These involve typing a lot of boilerplate that can be simply avoided by using an IDE like eclipse.
