It is easy to show different WYSIWYG options based on a users role. All you need to do is to write a plugin that overrides the file:
/dotCMS/html/portlet/ext/contentlet/field/tiny_mce_default.jsp
to check a users role and show different WYSIWYG options based upon that. Below and attached are examples of showing an advanced WYSIWYG to CMS Admins and a simple WYSIWYG to users.
TinyMCE is super configurable - we recommend going to Moxiecode's site to see all the config and options available.
