If you're using Mozilla, you're using the heck out of xul without noticing.

I don't know if Mozilla can be convinced to embed a XUL editor widget in 
plain ol' HTML. I know there are examples of the plugin interface used 
to put native editing widgets in a browser:

but I think putting a XUL widget in HTML (or replacing the HTML 
'textarea') would require a little bit more kung-fu. But perhaps 
someone's already done that. It may be that all this requires is a bit 
of CSS magic, but that's really not my area.

What would be possible is to make a XUL file that mimics a Zope editing 
page with a visual editor component. That shouldn't be too hard. I've 
already threatened to try that, but no dice. Perhaps in a week or two.
