'visual' comment editor?

Hi,

Is there any way to get the ‘comment editor’ to work in visual mode, the way the ‘post editor’ does?

With the post editor, I get a nice ‘visual/text’ style rich editor complete with media buttons, but with the comment editor it’s just the plain text editor.

I have tried a few of the suggested hacks but nothing quite worked. In particular, adding this to functions.php…

add_filter( 'wp_editor_settings', 'mx2_editor_settings_filter', 10, 2 );
function mx2_editor_settings_filter( $settings, $id ){
    global $pagenow;
    if( $id=='content' && $pagenow==='comment.php' ){
    	$settings['media_buttons']=true;
        $settings['quicktags']=true;
        $settings['tinymce']=true;
    }
    return $settings;
}

*almost* works, except the text that appears in the editor is ‘pre-escaped’ or something, ie: The visual editor ends up with the html tags in it, and the ‘raw’ text editor ends up with ‘&’ and other ‘escaped html’ in it.

I am running with crayon and bpress plugins which complicates everything, but I’ve been unable to make this work even with all plugins disabled.

Bye!
Mark
