Re: [editing] list all required editTypes for beforeEdit/Edit events (#79)

@spocke I would also have preferred if we had had the list a while ago so we could have had a good discussion about them at the F2F, but I think the amount of edit events should still be fairly limited and the change should be straightforward and not be the cause of many extra concerns, because browsers aren't required to hook into these if they don't listen to "make bold" etc. anyway. So I think it's a good idea to still put it in now, and not wait until a future version.

On your side, you can choose not to listen to these events in three of the four modes (events, caret, typing) and nothing happens. In cE=true, you'll have to do preventDefault to stop them.

@rniwa When you figure out about an attribute to disable the edit menu, could you also make sure the styling menu is disabled on the iOS context menu? As we talked about yesterday, even though an editor can choose not to listen to that event, it will be rather confusing to users if they can choose something in a menu that then doesn't do anything.

Also: Do we have similar problems on Android or Windows Phone?
