Opening up a file (app.js) with the JavaScript Editor gives me the error: "Editor could not be initialized."

NullPointerException.In order to launch Eclipse Neon in the first place, the following line was removed from the eclipse.ini:
-vmargs
As seen in howlger's answer, this is an issue caused by the JavaScript Editor not properly handling a parsing exception.
This is a trimmed down version of the original file, demonstrating the problem:
(function() {
var app = angular.module('TestModule', []);
app.controller("TestController", [ '$http', function($http){
]});
})();
Here is the code after the fix:
(function() {
var app = angular.module('TestModule', []);
app.controller("Test Controller", [ '$http', function($http) {
} ]);
})();
Eclipse Neon contains the JavaScript Development Tools (JSDT) 2.0 which use Esprima as parser. (Esprima is written in JavaScript and executed by JSDT via Nashorn.) In your case, Esprima fails to parse your JavaScript file and JSDT 2.0 are not very robust (have no fallback strategy) to handle this kind of problem. Try to parse your file with Esprima online. JSDT are aware of these Esprima problems and plan to replace it in an upcoming version (Eclipse bug 497249), maybe in Neon.1 in September. Unfortunately, as long as JSDT fails to parse your file, you can not use the JSDT JavaScript editor.
