I am looking to hear from scholarly editors working on authors considered ‘problematic’ for their views on gender, sexuality and race. What place can/should such views have in the scholarly edition traditionally focused on composition, publication and reception history?

"Highlighting of text variants: The working environment determines the differences between two matched segments and highlights them using the following color scheme: green for insertions, blue for substitutions and red for deletions. Additionally, the corresponding text sections in the remaining versions are being highlighted in grey.
