The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim Mod Support Confirmed

As if there were ever any doubt, Bethesda confirmed today that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will receive a modding kit allowing players to create new content for the RPG.
The Creation Kit, as it's called, was mentioned in the flood of details recently revealed but it wasn't clear what exactly it would be.
A modding kit seemed inevitable, really, as support for player-created content and mods has been a hallmark of Bethesda RPGs. Everything from UI tweaks and new quests to
massive graphics overhauls and brand new, full-length campaigns have been created for its games by fans. It'd be mighty difficult to turn away from that sort of support.
Skyrim is slated to launch for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on November 11, 2011--11/11/11--though you shouldn't expect mod support on consoles.

It seems odd to me that people would say, hey lets name our game editor/tools something- how about Radiant? I have little to no hope of idTech showing up in Bethesda games any time soon, but I know id has new quest subsystems for RAGE, and the name rings bells for idTech enthusiasts.
