What about making this new editor look and feel like jaledit, but named jaledit 2.0? Would Sunish be ok with this?
You mentioned Scintilla, I use this editor for another language and it is quite nice. Scintilla has been customized for this other open source language "Autoit". You may be able get this custom version and edit it for jal. It already has things like compile button and compile output. I'm not sure how far along you are with this new IDE. Others here have not said "let's put an editor in the jallib pack". I am wondering if they will allow this new editor to be placed into the pack when it is finnished. Maybe this is a question to ask before writing a new IDE. Matt.
