 >> Thinking more about that, not sure it's a good idea to have a static
 (non-movable) metabox in between the "normal" metaboxes.

 Yes, you're right. Static boxes intermingled with traditional meta boxes
 would feel strange.

 Typically I have all of my form fields within various meta boxes, and I
 loop through the array of boxes/fields to show them (in order) on the
 appropriate post edit screen. I was trying to think of a way that editor
 fields could still be added by using the same call to add_meta_box()
 (albeit with an extra parameter for boxes containing an editor).

 Thanks for the heads up on the 'edit_page_form' and 'edit_form_advanced'
 hooks. These sound like good alternatives, though I do think it's
 important to be able to able place editors exactly where we want to. I
 guess I just want to have my cake and eat it too :)  Maybe your second
 proposal with saving editor content, destroying the editor, then
 recreating it would be better then.
