Hi all
 
I finally got around to doing this, and Dave's right, I just had to muck around 
with edit-page.jsp, copy in the editor-rte jsp to the website directory and now 
the content area of the templates uses rich text editing. 
Sorting the javascript submit function out was a little non-ituitive but only 
about 15 mins effort.
 
RT editing is used by all templates although with a bit more finesse I could 
have that driven by template name convention or similar.
 
I can make my files available if anybody wants to do a similar hack.
 
 
 
Tim

That's not a bad idea and you may be able to implement it by changing
edit-page.jsp alone.
