Even if there are many wikis, there are many common features.
However, the best aproach may be to include these into a
layout file.
e.g.:
Style Chapter
wikicommand "=="
END
Style Section
wikicommand "==="
END
etc
In this way adding wikiengine support would be to make a new layoutfile.

I suggest these are dealt with in the same manner that wi deal with
missing environments when one change document type. Warn and revert to
plain.
However, images might be a problem, I guess...
I think it would be a great addition. My use case is my latest book.
It was co-authored in a wiki (50+ persons), converted to html, imported
to oo, exported as Latex imported to lyx. Added a lot of text and about
400 images in Lyx -> pdf. Printed. Loved the Lyx part of the work :).
However, now the co-authors want to start edit again in the wiki, and
create a living book on the web. And I have stated that it is out of
the questin as I can not find the time to convert it to a wiki.
