Sorry, your point here is not clear. You don't have obligation to implement
something in the editor you (co-)wrote. You haven't had that obligation before
either.


Au contraire. Whatever is used, is the law, or is going to become the law. There is no divine being telling us what to do, so your promise of "not being obliged to do whatever" is worth nothing. because by using something you put the obligation on the community.


Third, there's "don't tag for the renderer" rule. I believe the idea behind that
rule also implies "don't edit for the editor", i.e. it is OK to reject proposal
because it is bad/unsuitable/whatever, but it's unwise to reject proposal
because current implementation of the editor doesn't support that.

Again, on the contrary. We are introducing laws aimed at attracting beginners. Clearly, the choice of beginners is going to be Potlatch. Hence we are limited by what is available at the moment.

And let's not forget the popularity contest. Last time I checked, each of the three editors had an equal share.
