"Or emacs, which is nice until it's abstractions leak, and you accidentially start editing a configurations pane or something." I've been using emacs for decades and I don't think I've never done this. I've written my own elisp functions, packages etc (nothing too fancy, mostly text-oriented transformations) I guess I'm curious what you mean by 'editing a configuration panel'.
