YES, PLEASE! and that's an understatement ;-)

It is actually really stressful to hit the "JS wall" when pushing the 
limits of wikitext, and especially that I can't really make any PRs. So 
thank you for the calming explanation of your dev process and attitude.

Can I ask, is @Jeds construct of use? It obviously has been very useful for 
my demos, and I also recall Snowgoon bringing up some strenghts 
<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywikidev/scGK9fBKsZ8/nN1nF3szAgAJ> 
with it that his solution didn't have. Or maybe your approach covers things 
fully anyway? The use of caret position by character count does seem 
advantageous especially for the subsequent text manipulation. BTW, I'm 
assuming your "floating editor toolbar" also keeps track of start-stop 
position of the selected text.

Would that be an actions attribute, as exists in a few other widgets?

My conclusion is more like: Hoorayyyy!!!
