I'm copying this to the eclipse.platform newsgroup where Data Binding
questions are usually directed.
Have you looked for or entered a feature request in Bugzilla for that?
It looks like TextObservableValue (which is what
SWTObservables.observeText() delegates to) only relies on
addVerifyListener(), getText(), and setText(), so on the surface it
seems that StyledText support should be doable.
You could always write your own StyledTextObservableValue, of course and
contribute that to the project.

If you enter a feature request into Bugzilla, please post the link here.
