What is "Eliminate StructuredTextEditor subclasses and switch to plugin
action contributions",
Who knows this can explain it in detail?

Thanks.

The gist of eliminating the subclasses it is to push the
StructuredTextEditor along a path where clients reuse it by
configuring and reconfiguring it. This allows us to change editor
behavior on-the-fly for different input content types while staying
with a single editor class. The importance of having a single class
is that you can "drop it in" as a source page in a multi-page editor
and immediately get most of the behavior you enjoy from a standalone
editor regardless of the input content type, and when utilizing
actions contributed through plugin extensions, it could be done
without messing with editor contributor classes.
