Cross-browser Rich Text Editor (RTE) added to Roller

I was doing some Roller testing today and I found that the old Midas-based editor for Mozilla/Firefox is broken. I searched around for docs on Midas and found out about RTE, written by Kevin Roth, an open source cross-platform WYSIWYG editor that works with recent versions of IE, Mozilla, and Firefox (sadly Safari is not supported). Instead of fixing editor-midas.jsp, I replaced it with editor-rte.jsp. So now, thanks to Mr. Roth, Roller 1.0 will include a cross-browser WYSIWYG editor. Here's a screenshot to prove it:
