Comment (by azaozz):

 Unfortunately TinyMCE cannot be moved in the DOM once it's initialized.
 That makes it impossible to use wp_editor() directly in a widget.

 Was thinking to add another method to wp_editor() that would make it work
 in two steps:
 - first enqueue scripts and output the hidden html for the dialogs (all
 that goes at the bottom of the page),
 - second output the html around the editor and some JS to initialize it,
 leaving out the actual init call so it can be initialized on bemand.

 That would make it possible to add the editor with ajax too.
