That would be great. 
I've seen a few of these, but they seem to be un-maintained, and haven't receive patches in month. 
I suppose if we can have them in an organisation it would help being sure that there is not a single bottle neck. 
We can see that at the right time.

I'm working on having real-time on current code mirror but if we can code mirror<-> react <-> RT-API that would be even more awesome.

We are not totally decided on react and will have a look at phosphor also, though apparently phosphor does ply nicely with react.

I dont think we are concern about big binary blob, but really long notebooks, and some system where math expression
have difficulties to render. 
But hearing that it works great is nice. 


> - widgets: embedding arbitrary widgets within a react component is super simple :). If widgets are written in react, all the better, but that's not necessary.

havent seen a react widget yet... but I suppose there might already be some.
