Very nice work Max! This really is a finishing touch to many of the UI components. Did you implement these in CSS? How can they best be integrated?

I'm working on it integrating it to the detachable metadata editor project.

Partially done in #721

Regarding the XML view syntax highlight mentioned in the document, I was talking with Jose and Juan Luis today about something similar implemented for a file preview for Tufts University Metadata Editor.
Juan Luis pointed out a very nice editing tool with this feature called CodeMirror
Also this directive allows you to add CodeMirror to your textarea elements with AngularJS 1.3.x GitHub
He also mentioned that PrismJS is like 10 times lighter than highlight.js which I mention in the doc.

@fxprunayre, @jesseeichar, @fgravin, What do you think about using CodeMirror for the XML view?

[fgravin]

I like it !
It looks light, optimized and easy to use with the angular directive.
Could you do a separate pull request just for this ?

Thanks

Closing that ticket. If more work is done on that topic - create a new one eg. XML syntax highlighter
