While we are dreaming ;-)

Add a contens type (mime or like) so more advanced editor widgets can
chose higlight / edit mode frome it (ie C-mode, SGML-mode).

Still while dreamimg... A cool feature is to be able to switch widget
on the fly (ie: I realise after a while I will edit one text allot
and switch to emacs).

I'm in no time to implement this in forseable futer :-( so let's hope
ther somone out ther looking for tru hacker value ;-)
