Yes, the default editor does not work on IE9. It's usable in IE7/IE8, though with an odd highlighting quirk. In IE9, you can switch to compatibility mode, or there is a "toggle editor" option that changes the editor to a regular text area (so no syntax highlighting). There's an alternative Amy editor that requires a one line change in a model file, and that does work in IE9 (but not IE<9) -- maybe we should make that the default in IE9.
