Just to bring things up-to-date: this 'wikiwyg' group (as opposed to  
Jim's wikiwyg :) have recently posted a GreaseMonkey demo that does  
somewhat surprising things to Mediawiki:

     <http://demo.wikiwyg.net/wikiwyg/demo/wikipedia/>

It's... quite startling.

As a user and would-be deployer, I hope some common ground can be  
found for all these projects. Mediawiki usability, particularly for  
casual users, could take a giant leap forwards. Round-trip problems  
will doubtless be an issue, but in my book anything that allows an  
occasional visitor to contribute without having to learn markup is at  
least worth considering.
