A document editor may manage suggested edits in a collaborative document. The document editor may instantiate a document model associated with the collaborative document. When a first editing suggestion is received for the collaborative document, a first suggestion command is associated with the first editing suggestion based on a type of the first editing suggestion and a type of the document model. The document editor may apply the first suggestion command on the document model to present the first editing suggestion within the collaborative document. When an acceptance indication for the first editing suggestion is received, the document model can be updated with the first suggestion command in response to the received acceptance indication.
