We are investigating text editing using GEF tools and editparts. This can
be used for things as simple as editing a text label, or as complex as
something like Wordpad.

So far I've got simple text selection and typing working in a new example
project. The model, editparts, tools, viewer, and commands are just 22
classes so far.

I'm looking forward to using this project very much.

I've been working on an independent Rich Text Editing
Framework myself and will be happy to wait for the official GEF
version.

Things I'd like to see are compound part selection, which
would include TextEditParts and non-TextEditParts, i.e inline images.
And decent performance with large documents (noticed some performance
issues with draw2d.text - TextFlowLargeExample, bump populatePage's
for-loop up to 100 and redraw takes awhile... not sure if this is a
fair test though).

Let us know when we can start playing with the code.

Sorry for any confusion. This is a proposal for major new functionality,
not necessarily a new project. Hopefully it isn't so large that it needs to
be split apart.

Workbench team also uses term "proposal":

I'm too embarassed to release the code ;-). For now all of the code is part
of an example called gef.examples.text. The idea is to get it working, the
identify as many common components as possible. I have put in for a request
to create a CVS project for this example.

There is some working code in the gef.examples.text project.
Please provide as much feedback as you can :-)
