SAP note 742662 explains this editor and how to switch it off.

Call transaction I18N. Expand the folder 'I18N Customizing' then double click on 'MS Word as Editor'. On the next screen remove the check-boxes and activate. This is set system wide, so make sure all other developers are happy with the change.

Regards,

Nick

I've applied these settings to my system and the editor type has changed to the 4.6/4.7 type.
