Jars contain (most of the time) only the byte code so you can't get the 
sources from them. You have to git clone xwiki-platform, modify the 
module you wish/need, build it with maven, copy the generated jar from 
the target directory to the WEB-INF/lib on your XE instance (making sure 
you overwrite the existing jar) then restart XE.

See below re JIRA issues.

The two issues you picked are a bit difficult for you at this point. I 
suggest you start with these issues, in order:

http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6197 --> see how the WYSIWYG and 
wiki editors are integrated in edit mode.

http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5560 --> understand how the 
content is saved in WYSIWYG and wiki edit modes.

http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5583 --> investigate the WYSIWYG 
editor loading process.

http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4475 and 
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4398 --> understand the resource 
and document references and how WYSIWYG editor wizards work.

This should keep you busy for a while :)

Note that you can leave a comment on JIRA if you have specific 
questions/remarks about any of these issues.

Hope this helps,
Marius
