The widget used for the description, comments, and new comment extends SourceViewer. That gives us the ability to do editing, syntax highlighting, hyperlinking, and (hopefully) spelling error annotations! :)
How about outline bars? Though those should represent the entire editor...
Regarding the overview ruler, I'm not sure yet how this will play out. I'm still in the process of looking at Jeff's patch and figuring out how this is all going to work. :) If possible I'm hoping that on the first iteration we can get squiggles (text annotations) without the rulers, but considering Jeff's comments I'm not too optimistic at this point.

103093: spell checking of bugzilla comments

I plan on looking at Jeff's patch today to see what is required to get it working with the text viewers...
 Why TextViewer would be better then SourceViewer for this case?

I meant SourceViewer here. Off the top of my head I can't recall the original reasoning behind the choice of SourceViewer over TextViewer. Likely the decision was related to hyperlinking support but I'm not certain.
