Description John J. Barton CLA 2012-03-16 17:08:36 EDT 
The current editor uses DOM id='editor' as a distinguished marker for the editor container. This has two problems:

  1) It creates a global property named 'editor', on window (Unbelievable, but true), polluting the global namespace we just cleaned up with all that require.js stuff.

  2) It makes finding the correct instance of the editor difficult if you have several on a web page.
