It is not possible to perform copy/paste of existing text in the RichTextEditor.
 
To reproduce the problem:
- enter text or copy/paste some text in the RichTextEditor,
- select and try to copy/paste a portion of the entered text.
 
While we are talking about the RichTextEditor component, there are big usability issues with the URL linking system.
 
To add a link to text, you must :
- select a portion of text,
- enter a URL,
- you must then use ENTER key to validate the change.
Would it be possible to add a OK button nearby the URL input text?
 
It is then very difficult to remove the URL linking, because it is not possible to select the text anymore (the link become active and a click open the URL in a new window).
So you must use the arrow keys + shift key to select the text.
Most of users won't be able to do that.
Would it be possible to change the behaviour of a link :
- when it is clicked, it become selected,
- the link is displayed in the URL Input text with Remove and Update buttons (so you can modify or delete the link).
 
It would be also nice if the links are visually marked (blue/underline).
 
Another improvement request :
- an HTML button, to be able to view and/or modify the generated HTML (kind of expert mode).
 
What are your opinions and other suggestions to improve the RichTextEditor components?
 
Thanks!
