Editor
Extension
ExtensionDescription
This is the parent class for all Editors and also has a repository of handlers that are used to find the appropriate editor for a given object.
In some cases not only is an Editor found for the object, but objects within the object are converted to Editors. For instance when editing a Patch it is actually the patch's inputs that are converted to Editors (NumberEditor, EnvEditor etc).
Note that an Editor has a separate GUI class, and does not in fact have to have an open GUI in order to use or interact with it.
