It is important for web applications to be able to make only certain parts of a page editable. It is also important to be able to add event listeners to the page to capture certain events. From a semantic point of view contentEditable is much better than a textarea hack. Submission could be handled using the 'form' attribute as suggested earlier in this thread by Hallvord Reiar Michaelsen Steen. (Perhaps allowing the 'name' attribute as well to make it even better.)
