Yes I know but how does the WYSIWYG reacts to the fact that it

Right now same as for any macro. There's no notion of wysiwyg editor
for embedded macros yet. There's a jira issue for this open btw. wrote:

I've got another question too: what will the interface look like in
the
WYSIWYG? How will an user select how many columns to use and how
will the
user input content in the various columns using the WYSIWYG macro
editor? How will you add a macro within a macro using the
macro editor?
Does it mean you will have to add a {{section}} macro using the macro
browser but then you'll have to input {{column}}some
content{{/column}}{{column}}some content{{/column}} in the macro's
dialog
box textarea?
yes

Btw Dan I think it would be cool if
{{section}}
{{column}}
content
{{/column}}
{{column}}
content
{{/column}}
{{/section}}
automatically generated 2 columns with 50% width (maybe that's the
default
setting).
