[wp-hackers] Let's make Buttonsnap fully obsolete

[Xel]

Something alike was added with 2.5 already.

Why not just use the so called "media buttons"?
This Media Buttons Stuff is pretty cool, extendable and can be used with
tiny and code view (don't know which editor your're using, viper, could I
like that one more than code view? Do the media buttons work?).

I think Media Buttons are made in a good and pretty way. Maybe this would
need some extra css to make it break and extend when there are more Buttons
than fitting in the line, which may happen, when plugin authors get used to
the power of the media buttons ;-) but until then some time will pass by.

I am creating a new media button with my (still unreleased, since I realised
I should add multi user//multi account support before publishing it) Flickr
Plugin. It works like charm! Better than every tiny mce plugin stuff - and
it will (maybe) work for a longer time period since it sould work with every
editor *and* this one works with code view too.
