Community Wishlist Survey 2017/Editing/Continue development of wikitext syntax highlighter (CodeMirror extension)
Problem : As a result of #6 wish in 2016 Community Wishlist Survey , the new wikitext syntaxt highlighter, aka CodeMirror extension, was introduced as beta feature. But the development is far from done. There is for example no support for RTL wikis yet and there is still a handful of bugs to solve.Who would benefit : article editors, template editorsProposed solution : Continue development. Add support for RTL wikis. Solve bugs (see Phabricator tickets below).More comments : Article editors, template editors.

Support As proposer. There is still a lot of work to be done and it would be very sad if this very useful tool would be left half-baked.
