I've got the impression that syntax coloring and auto indent for JS code are still very rudimentary (no coloring of important key words like "function", "for",..., no auto indenting for opened and closed curly brackets etc - maybe someone could confirm this?). Guess this might be an obstacle for switching to JS (or a reason to check out using an external editor).
