I think the idea is brilliant, but DoubleWiki is really old and the arrow is almost invisible, so probably no one is using it.
Those who could use such a function are parallel corpus linguists. "Opus" is a project that collects open-source parallel corpora, http://opus.lingfil.uu.se/ In the Czech Republic, the project InterCorp also does similar work, and they developed their own "InterText" editor software for the alignment, a paragraph and a sentence at a time, http://wanthalf.saga.cz/intertext The screenshot gives you an idea of their user interface, http://wanthalf.saga.cz/pictures/InterText_screenshot.png
But that user interface could be "DoubleWiki" if you incorporate some ideas from Mediawiki's visual editor...
Now, do we have any corpus linguists who use Wikisource? I think we need to have the input from the actual users.
