Where is Umbraco headed with TinyMCE? (i.e. Programmatically adding styles to TinyMCE or bust)

[devin...@gmail.com]

I know that Umbraco is in the process of separating TinyMCE as a dependency for working with the backend. I would like to programmatically add styles to this thing, but before I spend a bunch of time trying to figure out how to do that, I would like to know where Umbraco is headed with this. If I remember correctly, Per mentioned at uWestFest that Umbraco has plans to remove TinyMCE as a strongly coupled dependency, at least to that effect on some level. I am hoping to find a text editor (in JQuery/Angular/JavaScript/XML/whatever) that I can extend. Has anybody made additional progress, or are there any further developments, in this area? I would like to know where Umbraco is headed.

Also, if anyone has a suggestion about how to proceed regarding programmatically adding styles to TinyMCE, I would much appreciate that. The documentation at the URL below would require that I either spend hours clicking the buttons or writing a UI script that just clicks the buttons for me. There must be a cleaner way to do this.

the old stylesheet api has a way for you to create seperate css properties that you can inject into tinymce, like in the link below: 

umbraco.cms.businesslogic.web.StylesheetProperty.MakeNew() 

That could automate the work for you
