Xinha for WP plugin: http://baptiste.us/plugins/xinha4wp

There was even discussion about replacing TinyMCE with Xinha, a hell of a

http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/wp-hackers/2006-November/009715.html

It integrates great (by default) with the post form and the comment form.
See it for yourself (and how nice it fits in) the comment form @
http://neosmart.net/blog/ where I'm using my own version of that plugin.
