Feature request - ability to add 'notes' to a document. I'd imagine these as toggleable divs that would be able to be inserted anywhere in the doc, then made visible or not by toggling a class. When 'on' the visible portion would just be a small box/space/marker that, when clicked, opened up a larger div with the full note.
I'd tried to do this with the YUI and Dojo editors a couple years ago, but my JS-fu wasn't good enough. I'm possibly better now, and maybe wil try my hand at adding that to this editor (which looks nice for a lot of applications) but someone else with better skills could probably lay the foundation for a 'notes' system much better than me :)
This seems like it would be beyond the scope of the project (to provide a simple rich text editor.) It should be very easy to add some sort of inline commenting/review system in your own application.

I think this suggestion fully qualifies as something they don't want to do, "[to create] unmaintainable tag soups and inline styles".
Who said inline styles? A class and an ID on a span tag inside a larger block would be all that's required. The clicking stuff would be applied outside of the document editing area.
This is the sort of reaction that makes me hesitant to even attempt to fork/patch it, because if this sort of thing wouldn't be accepted back in to the main trunk, I'm stuck maintaining a separate branch.
