Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't this have the same problem?  Person of 
high access makes zwiki, person of low access adds evil function to it, person 
of high access views it - unless you're tracking "smallest set of privileges 
held by anyone editing this page" at all times, you're going to intersect 
owner with creator and still allow editor to trojan.

Is that the essential problem, or should I be quiet and go away?  (or both? ;)
