And I think since adding a headline is actually only 6 chars more than typing the text, most people found UI where you'd have to click "add a new headline here" more to bother than just to type it in. So thats probably the reason nobody bothered to make a WYSIWYG editor.
No, this isn't the case. Lack of WYSIWYG editing on our wiki intranet is the biggest impediment to wide-scale adoption. Period.
