Slate v2 ProseMirror + Lexical Roadmap Scan

Supporting plan. For current queue and roadmap truth, see master-roadmap.md.

Goal

Run a fresh focused code scan of:

  • /Users/zbeyens/git/prosemirror
  • /Users/zbeyens/git/lexical

for these seams:

  • transaction/update model
  • history/bookmark semantics
  • clipboard boundary
  • extension/plugin composition
  • React/runtime subscription model

Then revise package-end-state-roadmap.md with package-level borrow / reject / later guidance.

Phases

  1. Map exact source files in ../prosemirror for the five seams.
  2. Map exact source files in ../lexical for the five seams.
  3. Extract concrete takeaways for:
    • slate
    • slate-dom
    • slate-react
    • slate-history
    • slate-browser
  4. Revise the roadmap doc with an explicit appendix:
    • borrow now
    • reject
    • later
  5. Verify formatting and summarize what changed.
