I'm not sure what you mean by "wondering if you guys will skip from Flex
3 beta 3 to Flex 4". Our team is currently working simultaneously on
putting the final touches on Flex 3 and on beginning to plan Flex 4.
 
As for adding <table> support to RichTextEditor, I don't suggest trying
to do that. RichTextEditor uses a single Flash TextField to render
everything, and TextField doesn't know anything about tables. It's a
native C++ class in the Player and you can't change it. To display
tables, you'd want to use multiple TextFields, which is what Buzzword
does. The only other thing I can think of is to somehow use spaces or
tabs to space out the lines of a TextField like this
 
word1 word2         word3 word4
word5 word6         word7 word8
 
and then draw some cell borders on top of the TextField using Graphics
calls. But that would be a really awkward way to do it since the logical
word order is "word1 word2 word5 word6" in one cell and "word3 word4
word7 word8" in another cell.
