Nice to know, I was not aware of that, since I have not use the editor much
myself since my browser is not officially supported.
But, could you explains why text alignement is not enable in XE, this seems
too me basic requirement for any user, so why hiding it ?
I will be able to enable it, but I may imagine not all XE administrator will
find it so easy.

Yes, this would be nice to have.

I agree, but we should also agree on our quality requirement. On this, it
seems Vincent has a higher requirement level then I have.

I am currently far from thinking about detaikls of tests setup, but I know
there are some solutions. What I have just said is that for proper testing,
we also need to be able to test all supported browser, else we will miss the
most common problem of UI testing which is browser incompatibilities.
