Comment (by theMikeD):

 That's great, but it still means that every site that has ever used to
 code in the text widget now has to be manually updated. Backwards
 compatibility wise, this decision was not well thought out. I would like
 to see the rich text  parts of the text widget reverted and a new rich
 text editor in trunk. In other words, don't replace the one that's already
 there, add a new one.
