All said, what are we, in fact, discussing? I get an impression everything, down to the implementation, is already decided?
You're coming in about five years into the discussion. So yes, quite a lot has already been worked on, extremely hard.
Wikitext as it exists is an indefensible mess. To the question "Would we invent this if it didn't exist?" the only sane answer is "HELL NO."
And treating wikitext as a hazing ritual to filter out insufficiently geeky editors is contemptible.
