It might be an idea to have HikaShop default to what is selected under Joomla and then an option to override that if it is not what the user wants for HikaShop?

By default the "editor" setting is set as "default" and in that case, it uses the editor selected in the Joomla configuration. Then there is something else happening here as my default editor was JCE but that was not the editor in HikaShop until I expressly went and set it to that.
