--- Comment #2 from James Forrester <[email protected]> ---
To clarify, is this asking for VisualEditor to replace wikitext (WT) with HTML
equivalents (but still inside a wikitext place)?

If so, that's not something we will do:

* it makes it hard for users to edit with WT;
* it would be bad to have VE replace other users' WT unexpectedly;
* it would be confusing to have mixtures of WT and HTML; and
* it doesn't save anything technically (it'd still need to go through Parsoid).

Because of these factors, that suggestion is a WONTFIX.

However, there is a different goal for Parsoid to be able to store their
HTML+RDFa in the database directly, either alongside, or instead of, the WT
that is currently stored. This has a number of advantages but is very far off.

I'm going to re-sort this to reflect the second of these, as I don't believe
that there is an existing bug.
