Allow the map sources to be edited as text in the source editor #19

It seems to be possible to work perfectly to make changes outside of NetBeans IDE to the mind map sources and the changes will be reflected directly in the graph. It would be great if it was possible to open the mind map sources for editing in the IDE as well.

However when clicking on a .mmd file in the Projects or Files view there is only an "Open" action available and a disabled "View" action. I would expect there to be two different ways of opening the file: one which opens it as MindMap and one which opens it in the editor for raw editing. This would be useful for Search and replacements or other bulk changes.

This is for instance how it works for Properties files (and other as well).

Alternatively there could be a toolbar in the editor pane with Source and Graph tabs like how it is for the NetBeans Form designer and certain types of XML documents. This is probably a bit more work though then just supporting the two different ways of opening the file.
