Trix by Basecamp is quite nice. It integrates really well with Ruby on Rails, and is very extensible. It's also well maintained, so it seems like a good long-term solution even if its functionality is still rather limited.
Trix is amazing and I've used it elsewhere, the problem is that I need something that can handle custom dropdowns. The reason being this is an editor for an email and my users need to be able to paste merge tags from a dropdown menu (like MailChimp) :(

You could add functionality like that to Trix. Chris (@excid3) did a GoRails episode about adding @mentions to Trix you could use as a starting point.
didn't know that! thanks Marc
