[WikiEN-l] WYSIWTF

I see three parts that will be required for a fully functional demo:

1. Conversion of wikitext into "HTMLized" code as input for a HTML editor
2. A (patched) HTML WYSIWYG editor that takes the code from #1 as input
3. A wikitext generator, running on the saved HTML from #2

I have made a proof-of-principle implementation of #1, and I'll
continue expanding it. I could also do an implementation of #3 later.

But, since I have little experience with HTML WYSIWYG editors, I would
prefer someone else to do that part. But since there is mostly talk on
this and the other list, I'll probably end up doing that myself as
well... :-(

Cheers,
Magnus
