After thinking on this a bit, I'll add my vote for changing. The only thing in the WordPress core that remains heavy (very heavy) is the TinyMCe editor. Although I can most certainly predict a few nightmares involved in changing over to JWYSIWYG I think it would be well worth some serious thinking. Besides, nothing says JWYSIWYG can't be tailored to meet WordPress' specific needs.

Just a thought.

How do people feel about replacing tinyMCE with jwysiwyg?

Best,
Dan

WordPress relies heavily on tinyMCE. Having said that, it also relies heavily 
on jQuery. I think that it might make core lighter. But it would break a lot of 
plugins unless a conduit was made.

Um, Please. No.

It's just starting to work properly.

That is all.

Is it really though? tinyMCE just seems so heavy - I started wondering
about this because we have a client that uses a resolution smaller then
1024 x 768 (old client journalist with bad eyesight) and her tinyMC gets
lost under her Screen Options which is kind of crap for her.

We wanted to fix it but tinyMCE visual mode uses tables and it hurt our
collective heads just thinking about fixing it :P

Hmmmmm...... Maybe it's time to get her a bigger monitor. LOL....

Seriously though, if you all want to switch over, just make sure the new editor 
DOES NOT MONKEY WITH THE ABILITY to EMBED CODE....

You all know what I mean... that was my biggest gripe about the older versions 
of Wordpress. You all have FINALLY gotten that right, please, no backsteps in 
production.

I use jWYSIWYG for my Front-end 
Editor<http://scribu.net/wordpress/front-end-editor>plugin because it's very 
fast to load. However, people are constantly asking me to include the tinyMCE editor, 
because jWYSIWYG seems too basic, in comparison.

I think a plugin that replaces the tinyMCE editor in the admin is your only 
option.
