For whatever it's worth, I wouldn't worry about mousewheel support wi=
th=20
< 1.4.  PC, Linux, and Mac (OS X) all officially support 1.4 (with OS=
 X,=20
it will soon), and if you want pretty in-depth stuff like=20
code-completion, you might be better off putting time there.  I belie=
ve=20
there are already hacks for Windows & Linux out there that people cou=
ld=20
use to quickly extend the jEdit pkg.

Another for whatever it's worth, if you add everything on this list,=
=20
you're getting really close to duplicating another project, the Netbe=
ans=20
Editor Module (http://editor.netbeans.org/).  The Editor is meant to =
be=20
a lightweight module that can be easily extended outside of the Netbe=
ans=20
IDE framework.

You might use that information (that there's a project that comes clo=
se=20
to some of this) to keep the jEdit package a bit simpler, borrow some=
 NB=20
Editor code for complicated tasks (SPL'd, so you should be able to ro=
ll=20
it in), try to combine parts of the projects, or just to say, "Thanks=
,=20
Ruffin, but I already knew about that 'competition'!" :^)

not quite 2=A2...
