I've posted an spkg and a patch which enables the functionality at least
a little bit on trac #3016.
Edit Area says that it supports Firefox 2.5 and Safari 3.0. It seems
like it is under pretty active development, so my guess is that it's
only a matter of time before supporting Firefox 3 fully.
The settings that the patch enables seem to work for my FF3 on Ubuntu.
Of course, I don't think this editor does parenthesis matching! :) The
syntax highlighting is pretty, though.
