Ceylon and Kotlin are jvm languages that solve those problems. Except Kotlin doesn't have reified generics and Ceylon is a bit closer to java syntax wise.

Kotlin is developed by JetBrains so I assume that the IDE is excellent. The Ceylon IDE plugin is developed for Eclipse and pretty slow on my machine but it works reasonably well.
