To help Ori sell this a little more... CodeEditor is used to edit
incredibly important stuff: Common CSS and JS for our wikis, Lua scripts,
JSON for EventLogging schemas, and more.

This is a power user/technical feature when used directly, but improved
CodeEditor usability means that we can help prevent bad code/enable good
new code that impacts all users on our sites.
