Improve text editor typing. The set of key actions available in the text 
editor should be enriched with additional common operations like insert line, 
duplicate line, transpose, and convert to uppercase. The current JDT editor 
support for templates with variables should be generalized and pushed down so 
that it is available in all text editors. [Platform Text, JDT UI] [Theme: User

I'd also like to see multiple clipboard buffers added.  This feature would give 
access to the last X number of items cut/copied to the clipboard.

This is (in part) a duplicate of bug 11020.

correct - everthing else (insert line, duplicate line, transpose and cas
conversion) is already there. Closing, the discussion around the push down of
templates is continued in bug 11020.
