You could allways use TinyMCE if simple HTML editing is all you need. Custom document model has its advantages in state change tracking, complex custom elements, unified rendering in different browsers (probably some other reasons too).

You can do all of that in HTML, especially complex custom elements that render the same in all browsers.

  but you can't do all of that in contenteditable... that's the point.

    I'm not taking about contenteditable, but the document model of the editor. Markup is much well suited to rich text because that's exactly what it was designed for.
