I've been busy with Edita, it took me a week+ to have a look see.

My comments are:
	There is an idea or two there.
	I would suggest something more like this:

		templates={{"Builtin",{
					 "Searching and Sorting",{
						"Compare","i = compare(x1, x2)\n",
						"Equal","i = equal(x1, x2)\n",
						"Match","i = match(s1, s2)\n",
						"Find","i = find(x, s)\n",
						"Sort","s2 = sort(s1)\n"},
					 "Maths",{
						 ...
							}},
					{"Common",{
					... (etc)

Probably with some digits in there for the selection/insertion point.

I also think you have a severe performance problem; try loading 
win32lib.ew and paging down to the end of the file.
