I think the subsequent OK'ing is unfortunate. Attracting younger hackers shouldn't be a more important goal than integrity.

What does this have to do with integrity?
I mean, don't not fixing what ain't broke is certainly a matter of integrity. Fixing something to the latest hippest new fad just to "attract young hackers" detracts from integrity. Making the editor an awesome badass attractive editor should be enough. Otherwise you'll only be attracting groupthink-prone douchebags, anyway.
