CKEditor 4.1 RC

• #9829: Data and features activation based on editor configuration.

  Brand new data filtering system that works in 2 modes:

  • based on loaded features (toolbar items, plugins) - the data will be filtered according to what the editor in its current configuration can handle,
  • based on config.allowedContent rules - the data will be filtered and the editor features (toolbar items, commands, keystrokes) will be enabled if they are allowed.

  See the datafiltering.html sample, guides and CKEDITOR.filter API documentation.
