If anything I think it is core.pager which is a misnommer.  A pager is 
certainly more porcelainish. by nature.

Given that core.pager already exists, I think it would be yet another 
mistake to put editor in a different section separate from pager.

IMHO both of them should have been user.pager and user.editor.
