One of the reasons the semantics get misused quite often is that the lack 
of an alternative approach in markup.
It makes sense to be non-semantic because IF you can get the outcome to 
look like what you need then you not too bothered about the semantic level.
Its your wiki, not generalist compatability.

I DO agree that *ideally* its much better to stay semantic, but users will 
often be focused on visual outcome that serves their immediate aim.

So I think TonyM's interest in an extensible markup is very relevant both 
to enable his aim and keep semantic.
