21611	RichTextField	Julien Bouquillon	nobody	"hi

Having support for a rich text field in the admin looks like a more and more common use case to me : editing pages, fragments, model descriptions...

There are many existing HTMLField implementations but generally painful to integrate, especially for django newcomers. (and too much choices)

Would be awesome to have a builtin RichTextField with at least a minimal wysiwyg editor, which could handle HTML, or markdown. We could make the editor swipable with another implementation (tinymce, redactor.js...) if needed. (Next to this there is image upload from the editor, but we'll talk about it a bit later).

Do you think this makes sense to integrate this in Django core ?
I think this would be a really nice addition to the already awesome admin interface, and makes things easier for beginners.

If so let's discuss about implementation, which editor to use... and i'd be pleased to help.

Thanks !
