Implement the Raptor Editor to the Dashboard and Front-end

[BoweFrankema]

The raptor editor is an awesome content editor powered by jQuery/jQuery UI. It can be easily implemented through a UI Widget or standalone. Here's a demo: http://www.raptor-editor.com/demo/theme-roller

I think it would be really great if we could implement this in our dashboard. This would allow us to do a few things:

1: Add Option field which allows Rich Editing of Text.

Example: http://cl.ly/1Y2h363s0I3B0B2w1a2d

This is how it could be added through the ini files.

[infinity_base_flex_slider_button_text]
section = "homepage"
title = "Signup Button Text"
description = "The Sign up button text displayed below the slider"
type = "richtext"
default_value = "Create an Account"

2: Front End Editor Extension

This could be a valuable extension for a client/user where he can edit posts/pages from the front-end. There is already a plugin available that does this http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-raptor/. It also has Media Library integration and works really well.

3: Editing Dashboard Templates.

Editing Dashboard screens could take a huge leap forward for Multisite site admins if they could edit dashboard screens using the editor.

Example: http://cl.ly/2b3J3a460U0R2r2w3l3D

All in all I think a solid editor would be a great addition to our Dashboard and as an optional front end editor. I think the most important functionality is the option to let people use an editor to fill in their option fields and possibly edit their dashboard screens.

I think this needs to be reviewed now that WP 3.5 has TinyMCE support for the front end.
