Getting away from wikitext is fine, since the industry has not apparently settled on one particular wiki dialect. If everyone used the same dialect, then you could seamlessly pour data back and forth between the various wiki-emulants.
I find the overall move to TW 5 a bit disheartening. Not all of us are whipper-snappers that can pick up new technologies at the drop of a hat. I was hoping for a knowledge platform that would stay stable for a half decade or so at a time. I just about have everything working as a productivity tool, rather than a nerd-toy. Once TW 5 is the rule of the land, plugin developers will lose interest in the old TW, and many will break (plugins that is, not developers) as FF and IE mutate. Its likely that many of the plugins I'm using won't have equivalents on TW 5, or at least not for a year or two. I've started looking at other information wrangling technologies. One commercial product for instance has changed little in a decade, which at this point I consider a good thing.
