Hi Mike, Ok I think if E4 wants to provide a CSS editor with Orion, it should provide a generic SWT OrionControl like I have done with CMControl<https://github.com/angelozerr/CodeMirror-Eclipse/blob/master/core/codemirror.eclipse.swt/src/codemirror/eclipse/swt/CMControl.java> . The big advantage to do that is that this SWT control can be used anywhere (like you have used, in a 3.x ViewPart, in a e4 Pojo Editor in a simple View to display just CSS content with syntax color, etc)
With OrionControl you can set the mode (css, javascript, etc). If you want I can create this project for the moment in my GitHub to see in action my idea? But the first thing is to fix problems with IE. I will investigate problems (I think with some polyfill javascript functions it will fix some problems, but I'm afraid it will not enough because it seems that Orion doesn't support IE8 (according my tests)). It should be really cool, if Orion team could help us with this topic (use Orion editor with IE8).
