Comment (by WraithKenny):

 @netweb Yes, I guess my point is that using Webpack for packaging
 CodeMirror should be avoided as it makes it so it can't be extended at all
 in the browser.

 Also, while creating a gulp build that concatenates the files for the
 browser environment, I noticed 2 addons are bundled that definitely should
 be avoided:

  1. runmode/runmode-standalone.js
  2. tern/worker.js

 tern/worker.js appears to be a demo script that adds globals for a 3rd
 party (same author as CodeMirror) library integration for example
 purposes.

 runmode-standalone.js shouldn't be bundled, as it's a standalone syntax
 highlighter (as opposed to editor). It's useful as a very light-weight
 highlighter that reuses CodeMirror's mode files, but it should be
 separated, not bundled (will cause errors).
