Not sure if this can be of help, but how is richtext value saved internally? Richtext widgets treat their values as a list in the form {content mime_type} and might misbehave if they are fed with content only.

Antonio - thank you - I believe this may lead me to address the issue. And please excuse what may be novice questions as I mostly deal with frontend applications.

I followed the entry down to the table public.cr_revisions and the column for my text field is labeled content and its type is text. To me this seems correct; however, if you go three lines up there is mime_type with type "character varying(200) and modifiers "default 'text/plain/::character varying. Is this why its not behaving correctly?
