Benjamin here from the Aloha Editor Team. You are completely right that Aloha Editor is pretty big right now; as Bergie as mentioned this is due it's ExtJS dependency. The Aloha Team has now partnered with the jQuery UI team and development is underway to shed this dependency and use the much lighter jQuery UI framework as the default.
You can follow the status here http://aloha-editor.org/wiki/Roadmap and we're totally open to as much feedback you'd like to throw at us :-) We're here to help!
