Remarks
This is a MEF service that can be obtained via the ImportAttribute in a MEF exported class.
The editor supports ClassifiedTextElements, ContainerElement, ImageElements, and Object on all platforms. Text and image elements are converted to colorized text and images respectively and other objects are displayed as the String returned by ToString() unless an extender exports a IViewElementFactory for that type.
On Windows only, ITextBuffer, ITextView, and UIElement are also directly supported.
