Some questions arising in my head:
do you want to make the WYSIWYG the cornerstone of XWiki online editing or
is it only the XWiki2.0 syntax editor?
do you want to make multi-syntax a key feature of XWiki or is it only a
facility provided so that people can use easily XWiki and when they are used
to it, they will naturally begin to use XWIki2.0 syntax?
If WYSIWYG is used only with XWiki2.0 syntax, it might look like you are
strongly encouraging people to use XWIki2.0 syntax instead of other
syntaxes. Is it a good or bad strategy? I don't know... to be discussed :)

Hi,
Just realized that our new WYSIWYG editor will only work fine with our
xwiki 2.0 syntax since other wiki syntaxes are less powerful and won't
be able to express some complex structures (like embedding a document
inside a table cell) or simply like styling a portion of text.
Of course this is not a problem of the wysiwyg editor per see but in
practice it means that users using it for other syntaxes when they
save will get a different rendered result.
So I"m tempted to say that our GWT editor will only work for the xwiki
2.0 syntax and that for the other syntaxes users will have to use the
wiki editor.
WDYT?
Thanks
