Mario, To illustrate this further,
See my reply to Jed, using a ShowCode tag and addition to view template. Perhaps a quick solution is toggle an unwikified view of text content designed to capture the cursor position (Character N in Text) when clicked, then open the text for editing with the cursor at character N. Perhaps we could put a tiddler into a quick edit mode, with unwikified at the top, wikified below that, click in unwikified area to edit at that point.
