"Rich-text" has a commonly understood meaning in the industry, which
is not the same meaning as what you believe it means. TextEdit is a
markup control, not a rich-text control. The use of the "rich-text"
label has cost people a lot of time and it needs to be changed.

So is PostScript. The latest standard for rich-text is dated March
2008. Your point is?
