I thought the defining feature of a text editor (as opposed to a word processor) is that it didn’t have rich text decorations. Are we talking about the same thing?

Most text editors will support things like syntax highlighting, which are text-decorations even if they're nor user-managed.

Not rich text, but decorations like decorations on a data structure. (I was trying to match the terminology that I thought a previous commenter was using.)
