I had the same thought when I read this. TYPO3 comes already with a page browser (aka element
wizard). The RTE should use it. If it isn't good enough (I see much room for improvement) improve
it, don't add one that can only be used with a specific RTE.

Steffen Kamper and me had the idea to use an ExtJS-based IFRAME-layer as a replacement for
window.open(). Steffen even coded a working demo, but AFAIK it didn't made it into the betas.
