Just wanted to back that up with a tale from the front line.
I have recently built a news system for our Intranet using rails. Being
a bit of a convert to the textile way of things I initally shunned the
idea of implementing a wysiwyg interface. But after a week of so of
support calls from across the office asking how to put bullet's in etc.
I gave in a implemented widgEditor by Cameron Adams -
http://www.themaninblue.com/experiment/widgEditor/

It's very simple to start with and we've made it even more so by
removing the italic and image buttons from it too. We also removed some
of the options in the "Blocktype" drop down so the only options are now,
Paragraph, Heading, and Sub-Heading. Our users wouldn't understand what
an h3 was anyway.

The cheers of glee that errupted when we showed off the new interface
were an strong show of feeling in favour of wysiwyg. So even though
I'm going to be using alot more textile on my own sites, I'm going to
stick with trimmed down wysiwyg for customer's sites.

Cheers
Tom
