I have the impression from here https://ckeditor.com/pricing/ that CKEditor is not completely free. So, using this extention is also not completely free. Should we include that somewhere in the README as the project currently holds an MIT license

Sorry for the late response. I think we are using the open source version of CKEditor 4, it's licensed with GPL/LGPL/MPL, and this license page explains the detail:

CKEditor 4 is licensed under the terms of any of the following licenses at your choice:

  • GNU General Public License Version 2 or later
  • GNU Lesser General Public License Version 2.1 or later
  • Mozilla Public License Version 1.1 or later

You are not required to, but if you want to explicitly declare the license you have chosen to be bound to when using, reproducing, modifying and distributing this software, just include a text file titled "legal.txt" in your version of this software, indicating your license choice.
