If there's one thing I miss about emacs it's having 4 windows of the same file open, each at a different location in that file, for super quick referencing. Is there a way to get Eclipse to present multiple tabs of the same file?

On the Window menu choose Editor, then Clone (since 4.4.x) or New Editor (earlier versions). You can then drag the title bar around to get side-by-side views.
