WIMPS or WYSIWYG?

My religion is Emacs, so most of the time I would rather be in that
exalted state.
My concern is that WYSIWYG can be poor on semantics. The idea that the
look is more important the structure leads to the use BOLD rather that a
section header says <h2>random words</h2>. Is the Wiki markup language
that difficult? Is there good support in the visual editor for all
constructs?
Having said that I must around to trying out the new visual editor.
