Once an editor has been selected for an input filter / profile, it can't be changed anymore.

Yes. You have to remove the assigned profile to assign/create a new one.

So what can we do to improve the UX?

OK - I see. Why did you change the behaviour to be this way? The way you did it previously allowing the user to just swap the editor by selecting another one from the pop-up was more intuitive.

The UI is excellent. It is simple and straight forward and doesn't require a lot of fiddling around to get things to work. Leave it as it is - you can only make it worse :-)

Once an editor is assigned, there is also an editor-specific profile assigned. Just changing the editor thus means that profile configuration values of the previous editor are applied to the new editor.

I did not prevent this in the first place, because I originally thought that all editors could/would share exactly the same configuration options and they are only applied differently. As we know today, that is not sufficient, because each editor needs completely different configuration options. That's why 3.x adds a dependency on CTools and will re-introduce wysiwyg profiles as an own entity - which means you can setup one or more editor configuration profiles first and afterwards assign them to input formats. That way, we also allow to move a profile from one format to another.

Marking as fixed, so this is hopefully read by others, too.

I see one more problem that's been unanswered. It seems the input format "Filtered HTML" can't be removed ...
