Re: Library/framework to manage uniformly *all* programming languages

I'm completely confused by this request. Isn't the point of
language-specific editors and IDEs to go from those aspects that are
common to all languages, and then add language-specific constructs to
make life easier for folks programming in a specific language?

To me, a "framework to manage uniformly *all* programming languages"
sounds like:
- English
- vim, or vi, or ed, emacs, or Eclispse, or what have you, before adding
language-specific extensions

Or maybe:
- a Turing tapae
- butterflies (http://xkcd.com/378/) (speaking of which, is there a
butterfly mode in vim?)
