            Bug ID: 45850
           Summary: Code editor should not be cuffed to the enhanced
                    toolbar
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW

Code editor does the line numbering, syntax highlighting and indentation, and
it should stay that way. No need for *code* editor to provide *writing* tools.

When editing module with the code editor, user will hardly ever need clickable
features from the WikiEditor (signature, links, bold, headline etc...), thus
why such resource consuming tool should be loaded when not used.

Actually if there should be any clickable features, then rather a list of
keywords for instance and other things relevant to the *coding*. (Nice feature
would be list of function definitions eg. but that's for another bug, just an
example here.)

Bug 26918 mentions editors should be standalone. And user should be able to
choose which editor to load on given page / namespace.
