Hi. Yes that does work well but it's awkward and not as
convenient as what I'm suggesting. Here's an example workflow:
- Select a textarea.
- activate the "edit in editor" function somehow (context menu,
keyboard shortcut, automatic, etc.). Editor pops up with
contents of textarea.
- Edit away
- Save and quit, textarea has your edits.
Vs.
- Run editor.
- Copy contents of textarea. This can be hassle if there's a lot
of data to copy.
- Paste into editor
- Edit away
- Delete text from textarea
- Copy text in your editor
- Paste text into textarea
- Quit editor
All-and-all I feel it's a convenience feature for folks who need
to use a lot of web apps.
