Mentioned at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Suggestions_for_extensions_to_be_integrated#CodeMirror
I think CodeMirror is an obvious candidate for bundling - it's a widely-used extension (including on most Wikimedia sites), and it works nicely with both VisualEditor and WikiEditor. The relatively new "Used by" template lets us see the popularity of extensions among different wiki farms and distributions, and as you can see, CodeMirror is used by 5 of the current 7 selections, - indicating that many people consider it an essential part of the MediaWiki experience.

Update - now it's 7 out of 14 for "Used by", which I think is still an impressively high number. Yaron Koren (talk) 13:34, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
Support bundling or core. --鈴音雨 (talk) 13:14, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Support. Essential. Indispensible especially for writing templates using combinations of tags, parser functions, magic words and what not (for instance, it gives you a better clue about the position of your opening and closing braces, which can be incredibly hard to tell apart if everything has the same dark colour).
