That is how wysiwyg editors work. If you don't have one enabled then you will see the field resize

@brianteeman i have to disagree...
#1 JCE doesn't have the issue..

#2 Code Mirror has the same issue..

#3 both show a "textarea" that is hidden which makes no sense when your using editor mode. If it was "textarea" mode then fine, but thats not the case.

When you create a field of type editor it is a textarea you are able to set the column width etc
However when you are using a wysiwyg editor it dynamically hides the textarea and replaces it with the wysiwyg editor so the width settings etc that are in use are those that come from the editor plugin.

The only way to "solve" it for you would be to have a new field type for each specific editor
