I think it would be better to keep the ad hoc "single use" Text box, but
add a new class of artefact if you want to re-use it or allow comments.
Something like My Blurbs or My Chunks.

My users would also use this for embedded media, much like an External
Video block.

And what would it take to be able to convert a single use Text Box into
a reusable Chunk, for those who only realize later that they want to
reuse it? This is only "nice to have", since a user could simply copy
the Text box into a Chunk.

Title:
  text box as artefact

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  New

Bug description:
  result from the discussion at
  http://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=3080 and previous
  talk between Richard Mansfield and me

  Currently, the text box is only available in one view and it is not
  re-usable. It would be good to use it in multiple views like other
  artefacts and to be able to comment on it.
