So far the file types for visual editors that come to mind are :
- *.xconf (component definitions)
- logkit.xconf
- *.xmap
- form definitions
- form bindings
- portal files
- i18n dictionaries


*.jx


By "visual editors" I mean form-based ones like the existing sitemap and form-definition plugins.



except from visual editing we have to consider about documents where we want to provide syntax coloring and context-sensitive content completion

.xsp
.jx
form templates

can be considered that belong to this gategory



Yep.

JX templates are semi-structured documents that can mix a number of XML namespaces and aren't suited for form-based editors. These namespaces will be handled by schema-driven (whatever kind of description "schema" means) source editors. This includes also XSP, form templates, i18n directives, xinclude, etc. We can make a list for these as well.



is it formal to create a wiki page about this thread ?

LepidoFileTypes is an acceptable name for the page?



+1! And please reference it from the mail Lepido page.
