Hi,
I have not really looked into the code yet, but I just wanted to get your oppinions on the question: Will there be a possiblity to integrate userscripts or other extensions into the VisualEditor? Particulary i would be interested in reusing the Parsoid and retrieve something like "get parent heading from cursor"... I hope that makes sense :)
Regards Jonas
Jonas,
The short answer is yes, you will be able to extend VisualEditor with user scripts. Gadgets and extensions will also be able to extend VisualEditor. The way this will work is not totally set in stone, and won't be for a couple more months, but we have plans to not only provide an API but also use that API for the features that we implement, to ensure it will be robust and capable.
Rob Moen is in charge of this area, so he will be the best person to talk to as this comes together. He's on the list now, so you can just continue the conversation here and he will get your messages.

nice!
so there isnt even a unstable API yet, right?. I wouldnt mind some API changes if this would spare me a much harder implementation on my own. Any hints on how to do what I explained, the easiest way?
