I think that is wishful thinking, unless we deliberately want to limit the 
number of people who can contribute on the web.


For a long time we not so deliberately did limit the Web to people who were comfortable hand editing tags. Then blogs came along, and changed all that. (Wikis too.) There's an order of magnitude more people publishing now than there used to be a few years ago, and blog usability is largely the reason. Optional angle bracket syntax is one reason for that, though there are others (automated site structures and content upload are probably more important)
