I admire the work you've done there. I think it's very impressive.
However, I also think it's far too complex for a site where the
accesibility level should be low. The syntax should be *very* simple
-- markup rather than programming.
I did not create this extension User:Frantik did.
One could also say that the current Wiki syntax is too simple for many editors.
Sure its much more complex than the 'standard' Wiki syntax, but I do see
a need for more dynamic page constructions and displays, and this provides
a very interesting building block for that.
I see this project as a natural progression of Wiki syntax. You can ignore this
development for some time, but as the Wiki editing model grows in popularity,
more people will want these more expressive Wiki editing options (like a more
advanced templating language, semantical annotations, etc.).
