Description

In the year of 2018, with custom elements around the world, angular, react, vue, polymer, web components standard, etc. NetBeans should get rid of checking HTML fles for custom elements. It is often a mess, to see an HTML file with hints on each element NetBeans doesn't know, to add them manually to the custom.json file.

I can think of some solutions:

• Make NetBeans possible to let custom elements/web components available by default. No hints/warnings, no adding to custom.json etc. or maybe adding all custom/unknown elements to the custom.json per default. Because NetBeans needs to know them for code completion.

• Make NetBeans possible to let custom elements/web components available by default but make a hint to go back to the current behaviour to use known HTML tags and check for custom tags again.

IMHO, there is no need to check for custom elements nowadays anymore. So I would go with the first proposal.
