It hasn't gotten to that point yet, but the maintainer of edit wants to add a lot of features to it.

The maintainer has used a hyped language to write a simple editor that already exists. Do I need to say more? OK. The code will be abandoned in 2 years. Maybe it doesn't comes to more features.

Oh god no, it's not the maintainer. It's frankly a student with no prior experience in both the language and the codebase, asking the maintainer permission for pushing a lot of ai generated code with chatgpt for his resume?

Atleast he has the decency to ask for stuff first and being straight.

Hilarious comment by the way https://github.com/microsoft/edit/discussions/682#discussion...
