Can't edit files that are *open*. I can with Root Explorer, but with TC rc4 errors out.

Sorry, the editor does not support the editing of files which can only be accessed with root rights. You need to change the permissions of the file first (properties dialog).

Will this functionality be added in later versions?

Probably yes. I wonder how root explorer does it:
1. Change the permissions to allow read/write access, then open in editor
or
2. Copy file with root rights to SD-Card, then open it there
