Switching between Textarea and FCK

Hi,

Is there a way I can turn on or off the FCK editor? In other words I would like to add a button that allows me to switch between the original textarea and the FCKEditor.

Can that be done?

I'm looking for the same feature. TinyMCE lets you do it with a function called removeMCEControl().
