These are just guesses:
  - When you want to autocomplete a field, you type "f" instead of "this."
  - You never mistake a parameter from a field.

But I don't like it. :-P

I know, Eclipse colorizes these differently, but it seems the Eclipse 
guys don't want to assume other developers are using/seeing their code 
with Eclipse. That's also why, I think, in inherited functions you see:

/*
  * (non-Javadoc)
  * @see foo.Bar.method(String, int)
  */
public void method(String s, int i) {
   // ...
}

In Eclispe you get the marker saying that method is being overriden, but 
if you open it in a simple text editor, you can't immediately know that.

Well... that was until annotations appear, together with @Override.
