TxInsertModeEditDecorator - input with "insert mode" where any new character replace next one.
      
insert mode is actually opposite - inserts when you type.
replace mode is replaces when you type.

    
I choose this name because on Windows you have "insert key" to activate
such mode in many text editors.

  
I agree with Igor on this one.  The "insert key" toggles between Insert Mode and Overwrite Mode - but the "key" is not the "mode" - it only triggers the transition between the two modes.    The perception that the "insert key" is more strongly related Overwrite Mode is an illusion since most text editors are in Insert Mode by default.  Per your description TxOverwritetModeEditDecorator would be more correct.

I will be happy if you introduce more clever names. Good names is difficult
task for single brain. Especially if you are not native english speaker.
But many of you already suggest different names. How we can agree on any
one?

  
Sometimes only by thrashing it around to wear off the rough edges.

btw, I really enjoy reading about your advances with TxText.  From a distance, it just seems like its going to make interesting things easier to do in the future.
