I'm not sure if this is a less complex option, but for the edge cases,
if you didn't want the ugly <nowiki> stuff in the article itself, you
could make templates for them instead. Example here:
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Vim_Tips_Wiki:Sandbox#template_version

so, typing {{s}} would result in "<S-F1>"

http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Template:S

I don't know of a reason to use &lt; instead of < in wikitext. Except
for those edge cases, I'd expect this to always work on the wiki.
