[Radiant] Interest in a WYSIWYG plugin

WYSIWYG is a call for trouble. Less (Markdown, Textile) is more. Encourage
people to think about content visually and you get instant mess. By using
HTML or plaintext markup, content editors are forced (in a good way) to
think about content semantically and to leave the styling, font sizes, image
position and floating to the designer.

However, that's just me. There still might be interest in the community. I
just saw what WYSIWYG did to people (in MS Word, Dreamweaver, other
CMS-s...) and decided giving control to content editor is not exaclty smart.
