Kevin pointed it out to me, and when I gave it a test run the thought 
crossed my mind that this is much like what PyAlaMode wanted to be when 
it grew up, but since it never made it that far Editra seemed to be a 
good replacement.  I then saw how well Editra integrates with OS X 
(correctly handles files dropped on the icon, can be set as the default 
editor for supported file types, has a document icon, etc.)  and thought 
that it would be a very good example of how to do these things too.
