for the longest time i've advocated that the tinymce module etc just  
extend the form
and add a '#wysiwyg' => true property, to whatever field they want.

this means anyone else can also go and add that property to any form  
they feel like.

if the element is set , and the module is not available, it is just  
ignored.
