Whereas I like your suggestion (because I have done the same thing before),
I have to think that Todd will "low-priority" this request -- there being
such a lot of other stuff to attend to.
For dumb***es like ourselves, I recommend a text editor for composition,
saving it to your favorite place on your system, and then cutting and
pasting from the finished document to the browser window. Works for me --
even allows for interrupted composition sessions in case you wanted to do
something lunatic like -- sleeeeep!!!
I use Textpad myself, BTW, which is not only a great text editor (sort of
the SUPER text editor) but will also compile different languages and then
even run your code! Weeeee...!
