Hi Mat I really like this for a several reasons:
* Despite its limitations you’ve made enough of it to clearly communicate your underlying vision, and give people an opportunity to see what it feels like * It helps to identify the primitives we might need to make a “production” version * It’s a tour de force of your wikitext skills I know that CodeMirror has a bunch of features for adding autocomplete to the editor, and I wonder if that might be the quickest route to something really usable.
