I might have figured a way (by accident actually) to mimic the WYSIWYG 
behavior. Although still in the primitive stage, you can try it here 
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/23745840/pre_release-1.5.1%2B0.7.8.html.

The idea actually came from a careless bug that I recently created, and it 
seems to work!
Comments and suggestions are highly welcome!
