When creating a textpage, it would be nice to reference H1, H2, etc type style tags for headings etc.
This would allow greater control on how text is displayed on a site. Whist I realise that textpages may be a little used function (as that is what blogs are for), it would help those that do use them

Being able to reference them via the editor would also help. As you have buttons for bold and italics, etc.

Flash textfields (Imagevue text pages), are not rendered by the browser, but instead are just a simple TEXT FIELD which is rendered by flash. This textfield only supports a few purely formatting options, as outlined here:

Code
.header1 { font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #EFEFEF }
Then you could apply this in your text, by clicking to edit the html directly:
Code
<span class="header1">My Header Text</span><br/>The normal text ...
