Totally agree. It would be a huge advancement to have a decent RTE
that really is a RTE. In my opinion it is not very rich to make text bold
or centered. That are the most basic things.. there's nothing rich about it.

What I am wondering about is whether this is some kind of weird Adobe
policy and they simply don't want that feature or is there some real issue
that makes it impossible? I reckon its the first.. and don't get it why
someone would give a damn about major improvements!? Pretty much the
same with Apple not including Flash support for the IPhone.. it's well 
possible but for some stupid reasons (one of them probably money ;-) they
just don't do it.

If it would work the way images work in htmlText I think it's not 
worth it.  They need to get the images to truly work within the flow 
of the text before this makes any sense IMO.
