The security improvements made in recent years are *exactly the reason 
why*modern browsers have problems with TW "classic", and sticking to older 
browser versions *for that purpose only* doesn't present *any* security 
risk.

I have thousands of hours invested in my "old TW" collection, and simply 
couldn't use them without my trusty FF v3.6 portable, or at least not 
without investing more time than I'm willing to to figure out the latest 
and greatest workarounds - I have no interest in server-side solutions at 
this point.

That simple solution is really IMO the only way TW classic can be an 
end-user tool for storing/managing/presenting content -  at least for 
average end-user types - otherwise it becomes a tool for programmers only, 
or for those with plenty of time on their hands to play with all the 
different alternatives.

Looking forward to the day I can once again use my wiki with the newest

I doubt if anyone would disagree with that 8-)
