Good news... I have written two tiny_mce plugins:
* xwiki -> converts html to xwiki syntax
* xwikimacro -> show macro dialog

I have done only some parts of the convertion - bold, italc and it
works very fine. I am reading into the plugin api more deeply so that
we could provide a better interaction - e.g. links dialog as we know
it, or image dialg as we know it.

I think that are very good news :)
