(forwarding this very good article to the xwiki dev list) Indeed a very good article explaining well the issues.
From the article I conclude that this feature is: * HTML 5 (and XHTML) * not standardized and thus with huge varying implementations depending on the browser Since I'm a newbie in this domain I'll ask some newbie questions... :) As a consequence of the above I don't understand why any cross-browser WYSIWYG editor would use this feature as of now. Wouldn't it be easier to implement everything in javascript? Since there are javascript frameworks that isolate the user from the browser specificities wouldn't it be easy to do that? Are all the existing WYSIWYG editor using this designMode/ ContentEditable feature?
