John,

I personally have tested FCKeditor within a tg app.  It is very simple
to integrate because is it a javascript only include.  I extended the
widget class and created a template the used the proper <script> tags
and it shows up.  Then you wrap it in a html form and the output from
the editor gets posted just like any other form value.

I think an approach like this is great for a CMS where the content
managers are not tech savvy but can cut and paste from word for example.
  The problem I ran into right away is the kid templating strict xml
parsing.  Using that editor, if you delete stuff, it will leave tags
dangling, etc.  So you would have to include as part of the form
validation the same kind of xml parsing that kid uses to prevent kid
from choking on submit.

It think it would be a great addition to the stock tg widgets.  The xml
validation seems to be the only tricky part.
