TinyMCE/WYSIWYG for a ComplexTableField element

Hello,

I have defined a ComplexTableField object (called 'Post') which users can create/update through CMS.
One field of this table has been defined as an HTMLEditorField.

I would like to be able to edit this field with TinyMCE instead of the "plain" text box I get . Yes can enter html mark-ups but
I would like my users to have a more friendly interface , like the WYSIWYG editor used in CMS when a field is defined as HTMLText.

Is it possible have "HTMLEditorField" handled exactly as HTMLText ? Is there a configuration parameter ?
Thanks,

bummzack

This might help you:

The easiest way would probably be if you replaced the CTF with the DataObjectManager. The DataObjectManager is based on the ComplexTableField, so you should be able to use the same constructor syntax.
