I think that statement should be revised to say that all the "non-plugin
based WYSIWYG editors on the market..."

XStandard, which is plug-in based, does an excellent job stripping out the
Word stuff during a paste operation. As a matter of fact, pasted code will
be XHTML compliant.

The key reason I went w/XStandard was that it allows copying and pasting of
images--which are automatically uploaded via an web service. This means a
user can copy and paste the entire contents of a Word document--which
includes images--and the content will all be preserved.

This is the one thing that *none* of the browser-based WYSIWYG (FCKEditor,
TinyMCE, KHTML, etc) can do for you. 

Our users have lots of pre-existing documents already prepared in Word
format, so allowing them to cut-n-paste the entire contents of the document
(including their screenshots) was a requirement for us.
