Just a thought: Perhaps XWiki should either allow users to edit a page with the wiki editor or the WYSIWYG editor BUT NOT BOTH and not provide translation between them. My reasoning is: * that swapping between the editors can mess up the formatting - which annoys users no end. * the WYSIWYG wiki output can sometimes be hard to read and even unreadable! * the WYSIWYG could then provide additonal formatting not currently supported by the wiki markup more easily (in HTML directly) * first time users get confused with the two editors and swapping between them and they'd prefer the WYSIWYG editor as long as it didn't mess up their formatting
Of course it would also be useful to provide some means via the WYSIWYG editor to add velocity, groovy code, HTML, etc to the page to retain the freedom and flexibility of the wiki editor.
