The plan is to change the outer …TemplateWidget (which contains a list of template parameter checkboxes) into a SelectWidget. But this requires the elements in the list to be a subclass of OptionWidget. Note this change does not have any effect, as of this patch. But this makes the following patches smaller and easier to follow. Additionally: * The OptionWidget class is already a LabelElement. No need to initialize this twice. This happens via the parent constructor now. * Remove CSS that is not needed any more after Idc5e048. This is not a FieldLayout any more. * Update some related code documentation.

VisualEditor
VisualEditor provides a visual editor for wiki pages. It is written in JavaScript and runs in a web browser.
It uses the Parsoid parser to convert wikitext documents to annotated HTML which the VisualEditor is able to load, modify and emit back to Parsoid at which point it is converted back into wikitext.
For more information about these projects, check out the VisualEditor and Parsoid pages on mediawiki.
