HTMLEditor customization

[Tom Eugelink]

Apparently I had checked out an old repository where that code was missing. Should have looked again in the URL before posting.

Anyhow, I've progressed to the point where I can insert an image using the W3C insertImage command. Works fine, but it is picky when it can be executed. However, the queryCommandEnabled does not return a correct value; the true or false does not actually match whether the insertImage command will succeed. The value is only correct after focus is moved out of the WebView, but that doesn't work practically (you can hardly bounce the focus after every keystroke).

I'll give the insertHtml command a try.

I find some 10 year old or so articles on how to insert things at the cursor position using that approach. And inserting additional buttons in the toolbar by finding it via its CSS class?
