Hello Susan!

Hi, Mihai.

The suggestions you are making with respect to grouping the source editing
features with the editor, and separating it from the rest of orion client
is exactly the kind of "refactoring" Boris mentioned in his first reply.

Thank you for your explanation! We are looking forward to the improved files organization.


I worked on the Orion integration and I got it working inside our new developer tool Scratchpad, inside the Mozilla codebase. Results:

- a patch that adds the Orion code into Mozilla's codebase.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660784#c2

- another patch with the glue-code that makes Mozilla's Scratchpad developer tool to use the new SourceEditor (Orion):

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636727#c2

Please look into the comments and the patches if necessary, to see how we are using Orion, the concerns and the implementation "report". I have noted in the comments some of the things we need to tackle in the Orion "world" (like line wrapping, insertText()). If we decide that the iframe workaround is a problem, we'll also look into changing the calls to createElement() in Orion.

Any comments and suggestions from the Orion developers are very much welcome and appreciated!


- submitted a pull request to support custom context menus in the Orion editor component:

Thank you again!


Best regards,
Mihai
