[Mediawiki-l] FCKeditor in real use?

We enabled FCKeditor on our Wiki and it has caused a few problems with
loss of page formatting if someone opens the page with the editor
enabled. The most frequent problem is the use of leading spaces to put
indented text into shaded boxes, or any kind of text indenting. That
gets messed up when the page is edited with the editor enabled. Usually
that can be fixed by reverting to the previous version and then editing
the page with the editor disabled. We suggest to our users that they
disable the editor as a default if they are editing previously created
pages, and only enable it for new pages where they want to do things
such as complex tables that are much easier using the editor.
