Editor progress and lack thereof

So looking at the Kevin's editor, I see that it uses Mozilla's midas component. As my ignorance slides away, I discover to my horror that Midas and MSHTML both generate markup differently from each other and they both generate markup that I am unhappy with. MSHTML puts everything in caps, Midas doesn't even bother with semantics at all and does everything with inline style applied to spans and divisions. This needs a rethink--perhaps we can use Greymatter to clean the junk up before building the page or comment in the page.
