I think it way oversells itself.  It throws in a little CSS so that 
paragraphs and whatnot are visible (not all bad, but hardly rocket 
science).  As an editor it's just not good.

For instance, move the cursor around and hit the link button.  It'll 
create a link like <a href="..."></a> -- no text, completely invisible. 
  Totally sloppy.  Well, if you can get it to link at all.  And then go 
look at its "clean XHTML".  Jumbled and uneditable.  Yes, it spells out 
<strong>.  Because, after all, when you hit the "B" button you of course 
*mean* "strong".

Anyway, I looked at and dropped this editor from my evaluation pretty 
quickly when I was doing such things.
