Yep, adding and removing patterns from cli is vital so that it programs can install new patterns (or overwrite old ones and then restore previous version on uninstall).

The editor is a nice idea and I was thinking of something simple along the lines as well, need to check it out at some point (for example if it would allow copying the pattern to clipboard instead of overwriting mce.ini it would be a handy tool for generating patterns to be used with my tool later).

edit: pattern format correctness check I was planning on adding as well.
