Wow glad to see you on the list Michal
AD7six I have little knowledge on test suites and so ...

I have to acknowledge that I did not really test solometra. Xinha is 
cool, the css extension is what any web developer who wants control
on the output of its app should want, but its not compatible with IE 5.5.
Paul James's script is readable which is cool but lacks all that huge 
part which is image/file management. For the gmail thing I should learn
how to get to edit that code brought by ajax. (If I enter url directly 
the sessions closes)
FCK is quite difficult to look at but has that 4 wheels aspect: it deals 
with issues like "copy and paste from ms word", which is the kind
of things I don't want to deal with.

So I think I cannot avoid fck and have to dive more in it. Normally it 
should still be quite configurable, and I hope to be able to put it diet.
Beside that I think it would be good to have a widget thing with a nice 
and readable code, so that we can produce quickly our own
features.

For instance I'm dreaming of having the possibility to edit php code and 
highlight it at the same time.
