Details

When the color ranges don't correspond to the actual ranges of text, the text view throws exceptions during _drawLines (which causes the text to disappear). This hurts performance because we have to synchronously wipe out all attributes and fix ranges in the syntax manager on every keystroke. Profiling indicates that, when editing jQuery, over 60% of the time is spent wiping out repairing ranges (in _annotatePlainly). To avoid this, the text view should gracefully degrade when confronted with incorrect color ranges.
