Some users don't like syntax highlighting for various reasons (e.g. external editor doesn't work etc.), see e.g. [1,2]. It would be nice to have an option (probably in global Jenkins configuration) which would switch on/off syntax highlighting.

thanks to pull request [1] it should be very easy to implement it as as plugin, which would be better then have this option in the core (so that only interested user which install the plugin will see the option)
