In fact, the wiki content doesn't _have_ to be plain text in this model. You
can, e.g., store structured JSON documents. e.g. containing wiki text in
their "content" field and the name of the renderer in the "contentType" or
"renderer" field, and client-defined tags in another (array) field. In
practice, the trickiest part of the client-side rendering is turning the
wiki links into something usable by the application. But it's certainly
doable (==has been done). And it inherits fossil's access roles, another
feature my current back-end doesn't have.
