I think it also will be cool, But the dev(s) need to make sure to remove script tags and place everything in a overflow hidden. Or things could get messy or even worse then messy.

I usually just look around in this area of the forums.. but eh.. this would be nice to see something like that yes. But they'd have to have the backend strip off script tags, as well as prevent some exploits which can be caused via CSS. Allowing javascript execution through client input would be a huge mistake as it could allow anyone with skills in javascript to execute malicious code on the client's browser, and there are some known exploits in Cascading Style Sheets as well. Which is why a lot of websites in which allow user input for customisation purposes often strip certain elements. One of the biggest rules of web development is NEVER trust any data sent by the client's browser. Even the simplest little things as headers or cookie values could be modified before sent, so sending an entire HTML document could spell trouble unless components are removed from the source before being permitted to save. Good idea, but this would be something that takes quite a bit of time to do and must be done properly, otherwise.. oops.
