Oh, and check out the Text specs on the Gumbo page to see more details around 
the text controls we have.  The RTE portion isn't in there, and we don't plan 
on doing something extensive, but that's really more of a chrome issue, the 
text itself will support pretty good markup without the need for what Buzzword 
does.

Frankly I'm rather disappointed "buzzword-lite" isn't planned to be a component 
in Flex 4. mx:RTE blows goats, and it's 2008 - nobody should be paying a 
third-party component provider for god damned rich text editing.

Well, as far as I know it's not. I'd *love* to be wrong =)

I must say this sort of post, and the recent Scene7 discussion makes me 
nostalgic for a failed project I worked on at Apple. OpenDoc would have allowed 
developers large and small to build components that could live together in 
compound documents. I reminisced here:

Wouldn't it be great if buzzword was extensible and if a buzzword module could 
extend other apps?
