As it happens I am aware of TinyMCE being already in Koha. But try as
I might I could not get it to play nice ( read - at all ) with the
News page. I tried the jquery varient of TinyMCE too and no go.
Also I dont like the fact that the imagemanager etc of TinyMCE are
only for paid customers.

elRTE worked pretty well. Had to do some tweaks to its css etc.

I have cleaned up the patch. Divided it into two separate patches. One
for the elRTE library and one for the Koha changes I did.
Now both apply squeaky clean. Got all features like image, media
insert etc working now.

Attaching both the patches here. Will also upload in bugzilla.
