build 3.0 M5 Bug 47600 describes a scenario where a plugin developer wants to reuse an existing editor because it is very expensive to open. She currently needs to resort to a hack whereby an external editor is temporary flipped to being an internal editor, then back. See bug 47600 for more details. The Workbench should provide better support for this. See also bug 5687 and bug 42643.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
