Yes, I've lookup at plugin list, you can write macros in e. g. Jython (maybe also Groovy), but not in Java.
Also, I tried to find IDE/plugin that can provide autocompletion for beanshell, but anyway it cannot autocomplete methods of variables
declared outside macro (buffer, textArea, etc).

Actually, I have implemented org.gjt.sp.jedit.Macros.Handler so it loads compiled class files (instead of beanshell scripts like bundled with jEdit implementation does) from macro directory . I have setup a project in IDE so it compiles my macros to this directory.

So I can now write:
public class Messages_Stat implements Macros.ClassHandler.MacroClass {

public void run(Buffer buffer, View view, Macros.Macro macro, JEditTextArea textArea) {
/* my code goes here */
}

}

It is more verbose, but you don't need to keep javadoc opened all the time.

Nice. Very nifty.

Sounds like a great plugin to me.
