This came up in IRC briefly. We've repeatedly tried to contact the
maintainer and haven't gotten responses from him.

I believe that Steve McKenzie said that he could be one of the new
maintainers, to maintain a "proper" 5.0 version of TinyMCE.

I believe this is the first time this has happened. Unfortunate.
