Thanks Roan - we decided to try the trunk version as the stable branch (r74799)
has awful behaviour pasting formatted text from MS Word - it apepars in the
edit window with all its formatting rather than as plain text as it should, but
if you save the edits it obliterates all the page content except the first line
only of what was pasted.  I could report a separate bug for this but it seems
to have been resolved in the more recent builds.

Guess we'll revert back to the stable branch version as we'd identified
workarounds for the bug by pasting from word into notepad, then pasting that
plain text into the wiki, or using a Word Add-in to save as MediaWiki format.

Cheers for the information.
