Hi devs,
Related to the other vote about disabling the xwiki/1.0 syntax [1], I'd
like to retire the old WYSIWYG editor. Although there aren't any obvious
benefits, on the contrary it, removes an important feature, the
advantages for doing this are:
- fewer bugs (there are known bugs that we've decided not to fix since
we agreed not to maintain it anymore)
- less code (the .vm templates that support the editor are really crappy
and I'd be very happy to get rid of them completely)
- strongly encourages (developer) users to migrate to the new syntax
- less non-valid, non-accessible code (standards compliance)
- fewer places where XSS holes can hide (security)
Personally I'd like to remove it completely, but there's also the option
of putting it in a -legacy- module, still enabled in the final releases.
This makes two options:
A) Move the editor in a xwiki-contrib retired module
B) Move the editor in xwiki-platform-legacy-web and leave it enabled
My +1 goes for A.

+1 for A), it's ok to have only wiki editor with the few xwiki/1.0
documents IMO. Plus the old WYSIWYG have lot of issues so it's almost
of a feature to disable it even for xwiki/1.0 syntax anyway.
