Eh, I wouldn't say TempleOS is disruptive. It was literally started off as a modern-day C64 successor. So, tradition all the way.
Pasting objects into text files is pretty disruptive. The only other coding editor I know that can do that is DrRacket with images. I mean the guy invented an entire OS, C variant, several programs... all incompatible with traditional ones, simply because of his unique personal beliefs.
It's still text with some formatting underneath, though, just like HTML. Actually, in HTML we already have it in form of
contenteditableattribute. You can straight up paste images and move other html elements into elements with it. I just checked, you can even do this with full on canvas elements and animated webgl views if you wanted to for some reason, though the code must be adjusted to account for it. I have yet to see it being useful and not a liability, though.
