With the 1.0 syntax xpage=plain was mainly used to:
1/ Output data in special format (JSON, xls, etc). In those cases
{pre} was used to avoid xhtml transformations.
2/ Output xhtml content without the XWiki UI, I can think of one use
case where this content was put in ajax tooltips.
Is 2/ covered ? Do we need a xpage=xhtml for it ?
Note that xpage=xpart&vm=contentview.vm can be used as a workaround.
If you we
want to have something clean for the future it seems to me
that having a parameter called outputType (or simply output, or type,
or contentType) which can take all renderer values would be best.
For ex outputType=xhtml, xwiki, text, pdf, rtf, etc
And when not specified it would default to outputType=xhtml.
For removing the UI I'd use another parameter since it's orthogonal.
Something like showUI=true|false
As i said this mail is about finding what to do with xpage=plain and
not find the way to call the plain text renderer. I just want to know
if we try to be able to use xpage=plain with 2.0 content or if we
don't do anything an say that you have to do this another way for 2.0.
