What I would like is some discussion about
* if this approach (working pseudo-WYSIWYG instead of unattainable
perfect WYSIWYG) is the way to go
* if the code I wrote would be a suitable basis for a system we can
throw at the general public
* if anyone is willing to help me with that
As always, my code is GPL, and I would be more than happy if, in the
end, it would become "official" Foundation code, with staff that
supports it. Well, I can dream...
You seem to want to do exactly the same thing as I'm doing, but in the browser only!
Maybe you're interested in looking at

Anyway, I have also looked at doing parsing in the browser, which is quite interesting.
WikiBasha also uses JS parsing, so maybe it's a good idea to look at that too. Trevor
also made a JS parser, but I think it's not in SVN (yet).
