I think these points have to be addressed first:

There is only one review so far, more (good) reviews would be better.

The “user experience” isn’t that nice at the moment, but it’ll be better
when the sidebar module is available in the SDK (should be in the next
release). Of course a nice integration like the native spell checker
would be best.

I think it would be a good idea to put all javascript code which does
not use browser apis in a separate module[1], thus code for e.g. parsing
the XML can be shared easily.
