Microsoft made an announcement recently that the next major version of Office Access will use the Monaco editor for the SQL editor (with auto-complete and intellisense) instead of the horribly broken black+white editor presently in Access. Their choice of Monaco is interesting because it's a HTML+JS-based editor - this hints that Access might be transitioning its entire UI over to HTML+CSS+JS - this might be a good thing - or it might be a very bad thing.
