Description Noel Grandin CLA 2005-08-11 06:01:44 EDT 
It would be great if javadoc comments in java source files could be edited in a
WYSIWIG/RichText fashion - the greatest impediment to my producing better docs
for my classes is that I don't enjoy hand-coding HTML.

Understandably, there will be times when the editor cannot deal with the HTML,
in which case it will need to fall back to showing the raw HTML, but the stuff
that the standard Rich Text editors can handle should be sufficient for 95% of
the javadocs out there.

This is probably dependent on
