Hi,
The Visual Editor is growing. One of the things that it's going to replace in one way or another is WikiEditor's toolbars.
Some WikiEditor features are already built into VE, for example links and bold font.
Some core WikiEditor features should be there some day: search and replace, special characters insertion, citation adding.
And finally, many wikis built their own custom features: * many wikis added buttons and drop down menus for inserting Math, Templates and useful HTML tags * English Wikipedia added RefToolbar * some Wikipedias added buttons that make automatic spelling fixes in the wikitext
Is there any clever plan for porting these features to the Visual Editor age? Or will they have to be redone entirely?

And finally, many wikis built their own custom features:
ProofreadPage on wikisource is of particular note here, e.g. https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Page:United_States_Statutes_at_L...
