The class comment for Editor includes a tantalizing reference to
SimpleEditor:

"SimpleEditor provides basic functionality for single line text editing.
It does not handle fonts and styles, aligning and Smalltalk utilities.
It handles one single line."

There is no such class in the image.  Is it available somewhere?  Coming
soon?

BTW, the latest image seems to use the old editors unless you explicitly
reset them with "TextMorph defaultEditorClass: TextEditor."

Thanks, Levente, for the tip about the VM.
