Hi, My idea of contribution to Visual Editor is in a very naive state and I don't know whether it will in full feature state before the deadline of GSoC this year. Sorry for being late. --
At the time, we are focusing at giving the users a real time, true 'visual' experience of editing on Wikipedia, It is also necessary to make sure that the editing speed and flexibility offered by the tools is maintained. If it takes too much time to perform an edit, structure the paragraph or switch between tools would eventually hamper the interest of editor especially in case of writing long article. I had previously worked on a VIM type text area which enabled users to edit text in VIM mode (the popular text) editor, and thereby increasing the speed of editing and maintaining the text. I was hoping of a similar integration with Visual Editor. I hope a major improvement to this idea can be done which can offer enhancement to regular contributors of Wikipedia. Also, if there is anything extra (and I believe there is) which can be added to this very naive idea to create something universal and better. If there exists already any extension upon which it can be build upon, please let us know.
