I don't wish to re-open that debate, but wonder whether wiki syntax highlighting in the edit text area is at all feasible. Text editors do this as a matter of course for html, php, perl, LaTeX, etc, and I believe some understand wiki-like syntax such as Markdown. How hard would it be to colour-code wiki markup when editing a page? I'm guessing that it is very hard, because if it was easy, it would have been implemented before now.
