Re: [platform-ui-dev] close editor warning

[jml <jml@xxxxxxxx>]

What if I also have other non-text data structure associated with the 
script?

I think to rephrase my request, it can be: Can we provide a mechanism 
that allow another view/editor/process to unitlize the data structure 
created by an open editor?

To support this, I want to get notification before the editor is closed, 
so I can properly warn user that the editor is being used by another 
view/editor/process. If the framework do not allow me to prevent the 
editor being closed, at least it can give me a chance to stop that other 
view/editor/process.
