Here's a question: is there a set-out list of steps to enable Visual Editor in this? Or is VE not quite ready for this?
Basically, what would the VE experience be for someone wanting 1.22 on their intranet?

VE is a BAD idea, its full of holes and bugs

Sadly, not quite ready, and VE already depends on 1.23wmf3 as it is…

That's annoying ... I've been desperate for VE on the intranet wikis I'm responsible for. I've asked casual Wikipedia editors and they love VE. (It's people like me, editing complicated articles, who keep breaking it.) But if you say it's not ready ...

"Not ready" means "not packaged as a 1.22 stand-alone install, and won't get back-ported security fixes".
If you're happy with VE as it currently operates (which is probably "good enough" for an intranet unless you have loads and loads of tables), and are happy to support VE as an in-development extension (rather than one with proper third-party support), please do go ahead. I'd be very willing to give you what support we can.

Like I need more gratuitous work ;-) I might give it a poke.
