Throwing strings is bad because it doesn't include a lot of important
information that an error object does, such as a stack trace or where
the error was actually thrown from.
ve.Error inherits directly from Error. In the future we may create
more specific subclasses and/or do custom stuff.
Some interesting reading on the subject:

* Classicifation (JS)
Use addClass instead of attr( 'class' ) whenever possible.
addClass will manipulate the properties directly instead of
(re-)setting an attribute which (most) browsers then sync
with the properties.
Difference between:
elem.className
and
elem.setAttribute( 'class', .. );
Just like .checked, .value, .disabled and other interactive
properties, the HTML attributes should only be used for initial
values from the html document. When in javascript, only set
properties. Attributes are either ignored or slow.
* Styling (JS)
Use .css() instead of attr( 'style' ).
Again, setting properties instead of attributes is much faster,
easier and safer. And this way it takes care of cross-browser
issues where applicable, and less prone to error due to dealing
with key-value pairs instead of css strings.
Difference between:
elem.style.foo = 'bar';
and
elem.setAttribute( 'style', 'foo: bar;' );
* Finding (JS)
Use .find( 'foo bar' ) instead of .find( 'foo' ).find( 'bar' ).
It is CSS!
* Vendor prefixes (CSS)
It is important to always list newer (standards-compliant) versions
*after* the older/prefixed variants.

So the following three:
-webkit-gradient (Chrome, Safari 4)
-webkit-linear-gradient (Chrome 10, Safari 5+)
linear-gradient (CSS3 standard)
... must be in that order.
Notes:
- "-moz-opacity" is from before Mozilla 1.7 (Firefox < 0.8)
Has not been renamed to "opacity" since Firefox 0.9.
- Removed redundant "-moz-opacity"
- Added "filter: alpha(opacity=**);" where missing
- Fixed order of css3 properties (old to new)
- Add standardized css3 versions where missing
(some 'border-radius' groups didn't have the non-prefixed version)
- Spacing
- @embed
- Shorten hex colors where possible (#dddddd -> #ddd)
$ ack '#([0-9a-f])\1{5}' --css
$ ack '#([0-9a-f])\1{2};' --css

This should make it much simpler to keep MediaWiki specifics out of VisualEditor, which will in turn make it easier to integrate VisualEditor into another platform.

* Added converters to all relevant node implementations
* Added new annotation objects with their own factory

Removed hard-coding of alien nodes, now aliens are automatically used for anything unknown, and block or inline aliens are selected based on whether the parent element can contain content or not.

* Makes it simpler in the linear model because we don't have to use style: "item" for regular list items and style: "definition" for definition lists
* Enforces correct nesting through existing node rules systems
* Updates tests accordingly

Now setting up multiple toolbars per config
Tools & Modes are now configurable per toolbar per instance
Base elements are created on demand and no longer id specific
Note: There are some bugs with multiple instances.
Change-Id: Id0bbbca2d1b76fd2db3f3b0f9abd90194930b610
This was caused by added this dependency in the code without adding the links to the sandbox and demo
Change-Id: I7b2f0129a28dfd8655dfbce8688cfb3920c690fd
* This high level surface object is responsible for creating & managing editor instances
* Revised Sandbox demo to invoke in this way.
