#2018: FCKeditorAPI is not cleaned up when removing editor instances manually
from
the page

Comment (by martinkou):
I can't really think of any simple hack to fix this without breaking #183
- which unfortunately is also quite important.
There seems to be no way of knowing whether FCKeditor is running under a
browser or an embedded browser control, so we can't just target the
onbeforeunload trick to Microsoft's WebBrowser control. There are two
alternatives that I can think of, but they may bring problems themselves:
1. Use the topmost window hosting FCKeditorAPI to detect whether an
editor iframe who'd raised the unload event is really removed from the DOM
tree, with a timeout. If it is not removed, then don't delete it from the
FCKeditorAPI.Instances dictionary. Potential problem: Is it possible for
editor instances to be removed without removing its iframe element?
1. We define a method for removing FCKeditor instances and ask the web
developers to use it in our documentation instead of using
element.removeChild($editorIframe). Potential problem: A lot of people
don't read the documentation...
Related to point 2. I've found from a support request last week that
removing FCKeditor instances by element.removeChild($editorIframe) doesn't
work at present, as it will cause JavaScript errors.
