The <part></part> delineation always confuses me. I really like being
able to program more complicated problems by parts so students can check
their work along the way. What I've ended up doing is to create a
template in notepad that I use for creating problems with parts rather
than using the boxes. But if the boxes were more clearly delineated, it
would be very helpful.

At present it is hard to see the "white" (or no colour) to light grey boundary.
Have a look at any multipart problem in "Edit".
Another suggestion:
The minimum vertical space to which boxes can shrink might well be smaller to reduce
white vertical space in the display. One of the obvious issues with using
"EDIT" is that one has to do a lot of scrolling because of wasted vertical
space.

"The borders are currently very visible in the colorful editor. Do you
mean that we should add some blinking :-) or that some borders should be
*less* visible, so that the important ones stand out ?"
?
A big No! to blinking or any other kind of "actions".
But "white" or light grey to delineate a box is basically a pretty bad idea, as is
presently the case for <part></part>.
I suspect that, if you simply made that one box a bolder contrasting colour,
I'd be completely happy with it.
