I have tried out the editor in the development branch before. What it
does, it does well, but a lot of functionality hasn't been implemented
yet.

But that's beside the point. Freeciv 2.2 won't be out for years.
Should 2.1 users be left without a map editor? It will certainly be
the bane for Freeciv 2.1 as a platform for scenario creation.

Can the editor code be easily backported to S2_1?

IIRC there were some port attempts, but there were too many changes to
the codebase

It was eventually decided that we should try to incorporate the
Civworld functionality
into the regular civclient, via an edit mode, changing it to enable
remote map editing.

I believe some of these features are in CVS right now, but support is
rudimentary
and poorly tested.
