If the wiki ends up web based, I only ask that it produce XHTML1.1 or
XHTML1.1 BASIC compliant web pages, so that there is actually a real
choice in user agent software and some consistency between different
rendering engines. Not HTML and DEFINITELY NOT HTML5.

Unless something has changed, ACLs are explicitly absent from MediaWiki.
There have always been efforts by third parties to make it more
functional, but I'm of the opinion that security should be supported by
the core engine.
