Hi,
I think it might be interesting to have an integration with wikipedia where
words found on wiki pages could be highlighted and when the mouse is moved
over them, a popup box could open and display the wikipedia information.
This integration is done in Trillian IRC and it's quite nice (see attached
screenshot). I'm not sure how useful it is though but it's cool nonetheless
and shows an example of web service integration (in the loose sense).
In order to be performant it would have to be done in a separate thread
though and the underlining should probably be done independently of the
page's rendering (using javascript).
Maybe an idea for a xwiki hackathon?
