Sublime Text 2 is a text editor for OS X, Linux and Windows, currently in beta.

Dynamic language definitions
I have been experimenting with dynamically updating the language definitions in order to support higlighting of all typenames, etc in c/c++ (via libclang), and it is working great. The way it is done is a bit of a hack though, continuosly writing language definitions to disk and removing them when closing the file. Some kind of support for updating the language definitions in memory via the api would be great, and maybe not that hard to do?
Syntax can be changed in the Find input field
Open the Find pane (Ctrl+F/Cmd+F). Click on the syntax selector in the bottom right corner of the screen and select any syntax from the list. Bam, the Find input field is now treated as a full-blown buffer with its own line numbering and syntax!
This might be useful as a feature, but the way it works now it sure looks like a bug: the syntax indicator still shows the syntax of the file, the Find input field looks ugly, and there is no way to return it to normal.
indent-level vs. tab-key vs. tab-character
I'd like to set the size of each indent-level to be 4 characters. I'd want the tab-character (in a file) to jump to the next 8-character boundary.
I'd expect the tab key (when pressed on the keyboard) to tab to the next indent level (4-characters), not the next tab-character level (8-characters). I'd want the whitespace on each line to have a tab-character for every 8 spaces needed, followed by 4 more space characters if the indent-level is not a multiple of 8 characters. This matches a style policy used in the FreeBSD project, for instance.
I can do this with preference settings in XCode, but I don't see how to do the same thing in SublimeText2. Sorry if I'm just missing something which should be obvious!
Opening find panel should not show the sidebar if it's hidden
stash and pop tab groups
does not color the PHP variable inside the string "AND user = {$user}";
in all other ide's color usually, but sublime nop =/
Include known projects in Cmd-T, rank lowest.
Color Picker
I would love to be able to press a key combination like control + shift + c and it will popup a color picker. Then we can find a color and click "insert" and it will add the hex where the mouse cursor is.
