There are also is some capabilities built into old school Qt using QTextDocument, not needing WebKit

Have you seen http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2009/03/12/wysiwyg-html-editor/? I'm not sure if the example there will help with your problems at all. Just a guess, though - for your item #1 - the blog references using javascript code from c++ to interact. You could easily write a javascript function (heck, use jQuery too, if you want) to convert the DOM (or a node tree) to an HTML string. And the blog post even references viewing html with syntax highlighting.

Anyway, just a heads-up to some prior work on the subject - you may have already seen it and know all about it. Just a thought anyway.

Cheers!
