I don't know which of the 2 subsystems (Workflow / Genshi) introduces 
more changes to the other one.

which would be less effort, first Genshi then Workflow, or first 
Workflow then Genshi?

A 0.11 targeted for end of 2006 could possibly contain both systems 
(Workflow and Genshi).

I like to use trac in the way it is intended to be used (that's why trac 
is release under the very liberal BSD2 license).

I implement an Open Source Project Infrastructure based on python, and 
use trac as the fundamental part:

As you can see from my technical topics within the list: I ask many 
times for information, but share always the resulting solutions which I 
produce / find.

Genshi will simplify the trac-customization, which means that I can 
build my custom trac version mainly plugin-based, without altering the 
main trac source code base.

I make contributions to the main source-code, whenever it makes sense 
(patches / additions which add flexibility useful for everyone etc.).

I've identified Genshi as the most critical part in context of 
development efforts and trac-source-code clarity. Thus I like to have 
Genshi active, before I dive deeper into the trac source-codes and 
development.

Beside simplified development, there are a few more benefits:

* Genshi will simplify the trac setup
* Genshi will help to identify the most actively maintained plugins (as 
those will migrate first to genshi).
* Early integration will reduce parallel development efforts.

Hope I've clarified things a little.
