I suspect that it is a problem. If you don't have a page id the cObj 
probably cannot load the TypoScript configuration.

Anyway, if you need to load the entire frontend configuration it's 
easier to not use eID and simply use a special page object (with some 
type number) to render content.

The RTE uses an element in the browser which has set the option that the 
content is editable. Each browser generates slightly different HTML. The 
RTE compensates for that and stores the content in a format that is 
generally usable.
Before displaying it, it has to be processed again. For one thing the 
URLs have to be correctly generated. This is especially important in 
situations where there are multiple domains served by a single 
installation. Also tools like RealURL, cooluri which generate speaking 
URLs have to be taken into account. Frontend users can have restrictions 
regarding which pages can be accessed; sometimes links to these pages 
should not be generated, in other cases they should link to a login 
page. Loads of things that the frontend rendering has to deal with.
Also, different HTML/XHTML/XML versions require more or less different 
output.
