Comment (by knutsp):

 I have a lot of custom post types defines without content, using excerpt
 as the primary content container. Excerpt is separate column in the posts
 table, and core sets up a text/html editor for it. Perfect for my use.

 Does this proposal make these more difficult to set up and use?
