Recently I've noticed several people alude to Editor v2 (Ev2) in both IRC and on this mailing list. While I know a header file and preliminary API has been scoped out, I'm curious as to what The Plan is. Are folks trying to get this into 1.8? What's the general order for development? What other work needs to be done to support this new API? Who are the principals developers interested in moving this forward?
And for the record, what are the benefits expected from all this work? Just lookin' for clue, -Hyrum
