I’m back at this again…any hints, ideas, etc?

What’s the use-case for this?
In my case, it’s part of a question and answer type page…where the answer (which is a custom post type) is to be displayed in the editable textarea on page load, without having to click the edit button. For logged in users only of course. The client thinks it’s more “wiki-like” this way. As to why the client wants it that way, not something I can change at this point.

Right. Sorry, that’s not a good use-case and therefore isn’t something I want to support.
Huh? It isn’t a good use case for what? It’s existing functionality on an existing site that I’m rewriting and now trying to use FEE for. I think there’s a misunderstanding. Are you thinking I’m asking you to update Front End Editor to do this? That’s not what I’m asking. I’m looking at adding this functionality myself via a javascript extension/file I’d include by using the “front_end_editor_loaded” action. Probably trigger the click event of the edit button or something. I was just looking for a hint/clue/etc to do that before I dug in…in the case anyone knew where/how offhand.
As for Aloha, we tried the newer FEE with it and my users didn’t like it. They preferred the version with CLEditor. So I won’t be upgrading any time soon.
