Yes, staff texts are tagged to the text block pool, while text 
expressions are stored with their own tags. (Other available tags are 
elements like verselyrics, sectionlyrics, choruslyrics, smartshapetext, 
bookmarks. All these have their own sets of raw text IDs.)

That's correct, but the FCRawText constructor should not be supported by 
the syntax highlighting in the JW Lua editor. I'll correct that for the 
next beta.
