Thread:VisualEditor/Feedback/More menu and some missing buttons?/reply (6)

I hope that the tools trouble would be solved much more deeply. The flow of Visual Editor should be explained, so allowing any user (with some knowledge of javascript) to manipulare the text as simply as a textarea is manipulated. At least, I see as a immediate priority that possibility to toggle between wikitext and VE interface re-parsing fastly what is to be parsed, so allowing to edit text by javascript moving into a pure wikitext textarea and seeing immediately the edit results. IMHO it would be great that this would be the first, basic corner of VE project, while it seems that this feature has a low priority.

I tried to change by javascript the underlying html, obviuosly with no result; is VE catching individual keystrokes and mouse events?
