I agree with the fact that developers don't need a WYSIWYG editor. Writing code is easy and html is easiest of all. So its logical most developers are against WYSIWYG editors. They are not needed for them and above that pollute the code.<div>
<br></div><div>But even if you write fluiently html, adding a big piece of content with headers, lists, tables is really a lot more work without a WYSIWYG editor. Certainly for people that are not used to write code. For them one of the advantages of using a CMS is that you don't have to learn html to add content.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I feel when there will be a discussion among developers whether or not to have a WYSIWYG editor, there will be of course consensus that there should not be one as its not good for the code. But developers are not the ones that add the content to a site, ask the people that add the content what they prefer.</div>

I feel that the very concept of WYSIWYG editors does great damage to<br>
user experience - ultimately, learning to emphasize like *this* or<br>
/this/ or even [i]this[/i] will be less frustrating than clicking<br>
buttons that don't quite do what you want. </blockquote></div>
