Also the textual syntax isn't guaranteed stable long-term, and it would be an additional maintenance burden on LLVM developers to make KDE patches.

I don’t see why we wouldn’t include other editors there. The text format doesn’t change so radically that the syntax highlighting changes in any meaningful way.</div><div><br class=""></div><div>-Matt</div></body></html>
