I don't know if it's possible, but why not make the text itself be editable instead of opening a text field side by side? It's kinda hard to see how your edits will turn out because you have to look away from where you are editing and the two columns of text are misaligned. But it's awesome already.

Good idea. Since I want to use some of this for JS tutorials - I may provide some inline boxes that the reader can then modify in-situ.
