Toolbar

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Just curious if anyone has built a richer toolbar(s) for this solution like 
what you see in Word. Bold, 
italic, indent, spacing, etc. Is that possible?

It's possible, just add a GWT RichTextControl, for example see the GWT Widget 
Gallery:
http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/1.6/RefWidgetGallery.html

This was purposedly left out for simplicity. GDBE based editors might have 
specific
rich text needs not covered by the GWT control, or might not be text based at 
all.
For example Cloudie uses GDBE elements and is not a text editor:

Has anyone written an online code editor using this? It seems like it's halfway 
there already. All that's needed is indenting, color coding and maybe the 
ability to save different filetypes.

I've started a GDBE based editor for Google Code actually:
http://code.google.com/p/gcode-editor/

It's very early so it's not available yet, but basically it interacts with the 
Google Code repository to list, open and update files of different types, with 
support for different syntax highlighting - it interacts with the Google Code 
SVN repository via WebDAV.

There's also LaTeX Lab, which is a LaTeX editor, for Google Docs:
http://code.google.com/p/latex-lab/

LaTeX Lab actually exposes a cloud-based compiler which is able to process 
multiple resources into a single compiled output. So there's lots going on in 
this direction, though it still is somewhat exploratory.
