Taking morals aside for a moment, one tends to be most effectively
recognizing and treating the problems in software one is actively
working with.  That holds particularly for productive software like an
editor.  So it may be smarter to leave the support of non-free software
systems mostly to those actually using the system, to the degree that
they are able to contribute to this support (even if it means just
digging up information, user interaction guidelines, preparing a good
plan of what they would need implemented, writing documentation for it
and so on).
