See the gedit class diagram at:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Gedit/DevNotes

LaTeXila had more or less the same problems as your IDE, see:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/LaTeXila/DevelopmentIdeas

The plan is to make the gedit source code more reusable, to be able to 
create specialized text editors and IDEs based on GtkSourceView. All the 
gedit code can not go in gsv, so a git submodule can also be created, 
like the libgd.

Developing a good text editor part of an IDE based on GtkSourceView 
still requires a lot of work. A better idea for the long term is to help 
making the gedit source code more reusable, so it benefits also other 
applications. If you want to help, you are more than welcome ;)

Best regards,
Sébastien
