ComponentEditPlugin

The Component Edit Plugin is used in conjunction with an editor (like Inline Edit Plugin) to bring up Syntax specific Edit UI's.

By default it will pop up a floating div window containing a simple textarea, but in combination with registered tag syntax, can generate tag specific UI's (%!SEARCH% is the upcoming demo example)

The tag specific UI's require a round trip to the server, but the default can be used without.
