The team developing the new text libraries plans to support importing a subset of HTML that is richer than what TextField's htmlText understands. It will definitely not be a full HTML implementation. Whether it will fall short of or exceed FCKEditor's capabilities isn't determined yet. Gordon Smith Adobe Flex SDK Team

We already know the challenges of implementing a full browser in Flash/Flex (at least outside of AIR.) At least allow us to represent and edit simple HTML content that's compatible with the rest of the browser world. Again, no full HTML implementation is needed, just something along an HTML editor like FCKEditor.

With this new architecture, text becomes an extensible part of the platform -- new text layout features can be delivered without requiring a new player release." I hope this is true! I'm working mainly on text intensive application. One is a text editor for math teachers and the second is a note taking app. I want multi-level bullets, tables and images!
