I can't agree more, There is no reason that editing text files would need a full web browser which is buggy and slow. Many of these javascript apps which are replacing native apps use 500mb of ram, at some point you will have 5-10 of these things churning memory and consuming battery life and cpu cycles. (Note Atom, HyperTerm, Chrome, Slack, and Kitematic is already 5 browser apps)
