I think Simetrical is right, though (mark that down, willya :-) -- anything the WYSIWYG *can* do, the wikitext should not be interpreted for (italics, bold, headers, etc). Things like template calls and parser functions can, for all of me, always be 'hot' -- as long as the editor colorizes them or something so the editor can *see* that there's something special about them.
Sounds ok. What if there was a kind of "compatibility" mode where typing ' twice invoked italics (and removed the ''), and typing a third ' changed to bold instead. Just pondering...
