* As a user I'd like to have a wrapper window, which would full-screen either the Text or the 3D pane with a click in the right top-hand corner or split the two panes with a divider I can move with the mouse:
this would IMHO make the handling of the two editors much easier and the continuous taskbar-clicking superfluous.

I created a ticket.
However, your request is really hard to implement. SWT does not support MDI and there exists a ton of business logic for the two editor windows due to the fact that the 3D and the text editor are simply seperate windows.
They are synchronised (which was very complicated to implement!) and access each other in different ways.
It is also possible to use more than one text editor and to drag and drop the tabs to another text editor instance.
I highly doubt that I am able to refactor the whole application for just a two or ten less clicks on the taskbar.
To seperate the text from the 3D editor was the first design choice for LDPE I made about five years ago...
Nevertheless... I will find a way.
