Ideally, I would like to see a generic language editor that can host any language and integrate to these services.

Even more ideally, it would be the default Eclipse text editor that would support some extensions providing coloration, completion, navigation (Ctrl+Click/F3).
Validation and quickfix can already be added by builders and markers, and are hooked at the resource level, so there is nothing more to do.

Once such extension points exist, typescript.java could be used to hook services to the default Text Editor. However, it still makes sense to already try to integrate it right now in JSDT editor so 1. value is still delivered while Text Editor doesn't yet support such extensions and 2. the code written will probably be easy to reuse later.
