Does JasperSoft have plans to migrate the iReports builder into the Eclipse model? I would highly recommend it.

Please no. Spend all your efforts into the core product and do not waste time for Eclipse plugins. There are other and better IDEs out there than Eclipse :P (IntelliJ IDEA) so why not a plugin for this and the other?
To me iReport is just fine as a standalone product. As a plugin you would need to start a full blown IDE to use it. Report Designers are not always full-fledged Java developers and do not have to work in an IDE necessarily.
Move the glitches from the product, be innovative and add functionality, which makes report design more efficient.
