I never suggested firing up an editor to do this. I merely suggested
that if the user was already an Emacs user, and they wanted to do this
under Emacs, they could use "live-find-file".
The Emacs process that I'm typing this in has been up since the last
time my computer experienced a power failure. Most Emacs users start
up Emacs and leave it up for the entire session, however long that
might be.
So I disagree with your judgement of "unworthy".
