So unless somebody can show that an existing feature is **really** unused then any design we reach needs to end up being able to support the same features, though maybe not implemented in the same way. If the editing widget is changed the same capabilities need to be possible, though maybe not implemented in the same way. The cost of re-implementing anything would be factored against whatever benefits a new widget might bring.
