	It would be nice if the editor could handle the html comment at the top
	of the method/class. It is so annoying having to know html code in order
	to write a method/class comment. Reading comments is also made
	harder with all those annoying html code everywhere. Plus there is
	no way of knowing if the html is valid without viewing it in a web
	browser. The editor should display the comment as it would be in a
	web browser and should edit it like WYSIWYG. (in other words, an
	html editor - like MS Frontpage, etc).

GEF is creating a WYSIWYG text editing framework.  Perhaps parts of the jface 
document could be edited traditionally, and parts of it could be mapped to an 
HTML DOM and edit using WYSIWYG.
