Hi, maybe the following link will help you to solve number 1. Neither I know if this is documented somewhere, nor if this is the best solution and/or will work in future versions of VisualEditor.
For your second point (I'm not sure, if I understand that correctly) you could take a look at some extensions, that doing it already, like Syntaxhighlight[1], LanguageTool[2] or other examples[3].

I want to write an extension for the VisualEditor (great work by the way) and I need a little help. I've browsed through various documentation [1-4](and more) and already learned that using RL module 'ext.visualEditor.desktopArticleTarget.init' and 'mw.lib.ve.addPlugin' method is the way to go. Unfortunately my attempts to hook into the user interface by binding on events provided by the components (like 'save' from 've.ui.MWSaveDialog' or 've.init.mw.Target') have not been successful yet. Maybe you could give me a little push into the right direction. Are there any HowTos or Tutorials for VisualEditor that cover topics like 1. Adding buttons to the toolbar 2. Accessing the data model (e.g. retrieve all set categories from the Parsoid DOM) 3. Extending/replacing a single tool (e.g. the GalleryInspector) 4. Binding on components events (e.g. the 'save' event, to analyze content and maybe abort saving) Points 1 and 2 get more or less explained by the docs I've found. But 3 and 4 are very unclear to me. Some hints would be appreciated!
