Given that the inline editor doesn't actually do anything without the admin module enabled it seems that the inline editor functionality should be split as a separate module. That is, the admin module is a hard requirement for the inline editor functionality.

Right now extra markup is being injected when the admin toolbar is not enabled. See http://drupal.org/node/872564

While this issue is probably not going to be seen by many people, we are seeing this issue in combination with the block fx-regions as provided by http://drupal.org/project/hexagon

It seems that the better longterm solution would be to separate the inline editor functionality into a new module with a hard dependency on the admin module.

Are you open to this idea?

Good plan as its functionality not all site admins need to use.

+1 from me.

It seems that separate module has been created, at least for D7:

(I haven't used it yet, going to test soon)
