Designer - JavaScript Editor is outdated

The JavaScript editor in the Designer (Script Libraries) is outdated. It does not allow modern notations (backtick, arrow functions, etc.) and we cannot save the JS file if we use these notations.

Please remove the 64k limit from NotesHTTPRequest

Please remove the 64k limit from NotesHTTPRequest. It accepts a String as input, those can be 2 GB. Also helpful if it would accept a NotesStream, so proper encoding can be ensured.

Update the Java API

Xpages, please Open Source and give back to community/OpenNTF

Collapsable code loops in lotus script

When looking at lotus script it would be super helpful in longer code sections to be able to collapse the code for while, do, for, etc loops - look at most other design development tools and this is a standard option.

Enhance LotusScript with Base64 encode/decode, MD5, SHA1, SHA256

Please provide a native LotusScript interface to do Base64 encoding and decoding, and hash functions like MD5, SHA1, SHA256. Needed since Nomad does not have Java for speedy access to those functions, and these functions are needed on the web.
