Currently, when you run Brackets in the browser, we add dummy content to the tree, but don't have any content in the browser. We should add dummy content there as well, so we can test editor functionality in the context of the browser.

Assigning to Peter since he's working on editors, but this could be anyone really.

I think the amount of work we'd need to do to shim around all the code that expects to talk to app shell APIs -- persistence, reading folder contents, reading file contents, etc. -- isn't worth it given that it'd all be throwaway code and that we're going to build a "real" server-based version within the next 1-2 iterations.

Can we treat this as "won't fix"?

Oh, I just wanted to stick some default content in the editor :) But it just occurred to me that we can just copy and paste into the editor, so yeah, we can just close this.
