Do note that this project isn't open source: for something like an editor, this is a bit of a negative for me since it significantly reduces how it can be customized if need be.

Oops. Thanks for the correction. I only lightly skimmed the project page, so I think the "Support 10x Development" header made me assume it was an open source project asking for donations.

That said, I'm not really sure why I specified "open source" since my gripe definitely goes for any software project, and probably doubly so for commercial ones, since those actually need a literal sales pitch to convince potential users of their value proposition.
