Did you notice the text-info dialog has an --editable option?

for short text entry (single string, not necessarily single line)
zenity --entry \
--title="Add new profile" \
--text="Enter name of new profile:" \
--entry-text "NewProfile"
for text from file
zenity --text-info \
--title="Edit Me" \
--editable \
--width=640 \
--height=480 \
--filename=fred.txt
May not be fancy enough but they certainly exist and they work.
