Description Missing name CLA 2017-04-01 12:19:52 EDT 
If I have a JSP file with a contentType set to something other than text/html, the syntax highlighting and content assist do not work for JSP tags. It still works for EL though. My specific issue is with a JSP that I want to serve a JSON response. If I remove the <%@ page contentType="application/json; charset=UTF-8" %> line at the top of the file it works again.

We don't presently support editing files that output a content type of JSON. A high quality contributed patch making that possible would be considered.
