Is there a way of doing this for IE?

There are possibly other solutions. I'd love to somehow integrate a
better editor into Moin. It would really help with non-technical users
taking it up.

I've thought about integrating editors such as:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/fckeditor/

or writing a Java editor:

But I've not got round to finishing anything! I'm not an
web/Java/Jscript expert. It would be pretty simple to do this in Moin my
deriving from PageEditor. Probably the best solution would be a
dedicated Java editor, perhaps written using Jython? Thoughts?
