This goes far beyond the requirement for a rich text editor. You're
now talking about rich object integration, which is about 80% of a
full featured word processor. You won't find a cross platform
implementation that's suitable for use as a component in anything.

Delphi components are tightly tied to the Delphi runtime environment
and its' gui abstractions, so embedding it as is is will be a massive
hack (and require extensive C code) if its even possible.

However, any company who writes such a full featured control is likely
to package it as an ActiveX control so they can get the sales from the
VB guys, and you can embed ActiveX control in wxPython applications
(Windows only, of course).
