If you run $wgParser->parse(...) in the getContent function under
includes/EditPage.php you can give the FCKEditor HTMLcode instead of
Wikicode, so it doesn't mess up anything. This ofcourse gives you a
table of contents etc as well, but that's easilly removed with a
couple of preg_replace. It also removes the categories, which can be
gathered with a preg_match before the content is parsed and appended
or prepended (whichever you preffer) after the content is parsed.
There's also the issue with templates, one way to do this is when you
get the content before you parse it to HTML you use:
$content = preg_replace('/({{[\w\d\ ]*}})/i', '<nowiki>$1</nowiki>',
$this-mArticle->getContent());

Do you have any examples?

Haven't had this problem with any other browsers.

A simple XML parser can parse the content to Wikicode before it's
saved in the database. PHPs xml_parse should work fine.
