I&apos;ve seen lots of blog posts about it, but never used it. It seems to be about network programming. Indeed, the node website says &quot;Node&apos;s goal is to provide an easy way to build scalable network programs.&quot;&lt;p&gt;Would someone enlighten me what the motivation is to use it as an editor&apos;s scripting environment?</text></comment>

Then applications could drop all of that code and just let the OS deal with it. Also, you&apos;d be able to group distinct applications. I&apos;d love to have a [Browser, Text Editor, Terminal] tab group.&lt;p&gt;EDIT: Another thought... Chrome tabs don&apos;t look like any other tabs in Mac OSX. Applications lose uniformity as they&apos;re forced to define more about themselves.</text></comment>
