i happily use the foreach template but what bothers me is that it doenst include fields on the class in the list of suggestions. that would be really great!

NOTE: You could implement your own variable resolver and use that one in the template.

The doc states that ${iterable} "Evaluates to a proposal for an iterable or array visible in the current scope.".

Here: http://help.eclipse.org/kepler/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.jdt.doc.user%2Fconcepts%2Fconcept-template-variables.htm

So either the code or the doc needs fixing.

It seems that most 'simple' variables (iterable, array, collection, etc.) behave this way (suggest only locals). 

The 'complex' variable ${id:var(type)} works on all scopes.
