Comment:

 Trying to find the right balance here - want to let people know (as the
 Developer Happiness section does:
 https://wordpress.org/news/2017/11/tipton/ ) that Code Mirror isn't *just*
 used in the Custom HTML widget, but also let them know how it helps a non-
 developer user.

 How's this? (will make text into a patch shortly):

   If you’ve ever had a need to edit CSS, HTML, or JavaScript from within
 the WordPress dashboard, you know how easy it can be to miss syntax errors
 or other problems. That's why we’ve introduced a new code editing library
 which allows for syntax highlighting, error checking, and validation.
 You’ll be able to scan code, identify potential issues, and fix errors
 quickly. This new library is used by the Custom HTML widget (introduced in
 WordPress 4.8.1), but developers will also be able to use this library
 wherever they provide code writing or editing experiences.
