Well, could be possible but only if you have a way to query for texteditor  
plugins,
have custom uirc files and call replaceXMLFile() on those plugins.

PS: you'd better not do manual processing other than replaceXMLFile().
We had that before and it was too slow to be useful
(and not that our view switching is super-fast as it is now)
