Following the comments on that bug (especially Brion's[1]), and the  
posts on this
thread at wikitech-l I suggest the following:


* Implement a backend interface to plug-in (other/any) editor  
frontends (bug 26914) [2]
* Move current core editor (aka "Monobook editor") to an extension for  
those who want it,
        do this before 1.18 release.
* Make minor adjustments to WikiEditor to use this new hook
* Keep WikiEditor in an extension and bundle it with 1.18 or 1.19

Result:
When people download/install 1.18 they have WikiEditor bundled by  
default,
they can choose to not install / pull out the WikiEditor extension and/ 
or
        plug-in ClassicToolbar instead.
