I believe a good addition to the TinyMCE editor would be to enable the inlinepopups and fullscreen plugins. Wordpress has one of the most appealing content visual editors out there. The fullscreen mode is especially versatile with its word counter and the clutter-free writing space.

The code used to setup the JS side of things is at wordpress\wp-admin\js\wp-fullscreen.dev.js but they seem to be using a different toolkit instead of jQuery to handle visual effects.

Perhaps another improvement would be to ship an initialization script that checks for an outside CSS to style the editor content frame. We have created our own TinyMCE widget for this purpose but the general public would probably appreciate having an instant drop-in approach to customize how the editor window looks (which is hideous otherwise, especially the typography).
