I think the problem is one of integration. People want anything publically editable to be consistent. Earlier in this thread TheDJ made a comparison to building an office tower with duct tape. Well he has a fair point about hacky solutions, to extend the metaphor, nobody wants an office tower built of fifty different materials either, they want a unified building that looks integrated and consistent. Using wiki pages gives integration with all current site features and any future site feautres which don't exist yet, for free.
In my opinion the problem here is that there is no separation of concerns between public and private. Just make Gather private by default, and then use another system to ‘publish’ a list to the public space, with a separate content model, separate namespace (or use subpages inside User) etc.
