esc_html() and esc_textarea() are, appropriate to their names, escaping functions and really meant for display rather than sanitizing or validating. I would use wp_kses() or wp_kses_post() (which is just wp_kses() with the global $allowedposttags) to sanitize input from a wp_editor() field before saving.
