Interesting blog post John. Will be intrigued to see how those plugin ambitions work out and what eventuates in terms of a community around that.
Personally I am stoked to see the effort you guys have made around trying to reduce the rather large bug count rather than just throwing more functionality in straight away. As nice as spell checking would be I could care less in comparison to getting rid of so many of the annoying quirks and data loss issues it has had. It is definitely trending in the right direction for stability for sure so kudos to you guys.
I'll still be doing a local build at some point to put in my features I can't live without (like opening the stylesheet by default rather than the first html page, and some missing keyboard shortcuts etc). But at least the code base is getting to a better point to do that on again. Now if only the last of the focus/find/jumping selection issues that I reported yesterday can be resolved (it seems the attempted resolving of the other issues for 0.4.2 maybe caused the new one or else it was there all along) then I'll be an even happier camper for a while
