deemphasize the source editor
This repo does not support freewheeling modification. It's a primitive to enable freewheeling modification in downstream forks. The source editor is a convenience, but it's a sharp tool and can easily leave the app in a broken state that requires dropping down to external tools (editor, file manager) to fix.
