I think I have found a workaround: In Window|Preferences|General|Editors|Text Editors unselect Enable drag and drop of text. This works with procedures and newly created .sql files.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

Yes, this is a known bug. There is no current way of using SQL Editor in Eclipse 3.3. A new version will be available in some time.
Sorry about that.

The workaround seems to work indeed. But there's a serious problem with the syntax highlighting in the SQL Editor - I will file a separate bug report.
