I can't type angle brackets (like > and <) in the non-rich editor. They go the same place as new lines. I hope it's a happy place.

Hmm, sometimes they survive, lets try angle-fx foo close-angle, as in a code sample:

yup, vanished. ffs. how am I meant to talk about MXML (i.e. that big Flex project Adobe do) then ?

The line breaks stripping is especially annoying.

So the considered view of one of Adobe's community experts is that I can either have spell checking but no line breaks, or line breaks but no spell checking ?

It is unfortunate that browser spell checkers dont work in the rich text editor. I would prefer it. But, there is a spell checker in the rich text editor. It works a bit different than a browser checker; but it does work.
