Hi Shiva,
I have been tearing my hair all of today trying to create a lengthy document
in the WYSIWYG editor, so i totally agree :)
We all agree. I you know of motivated, good GWT developers willing to work
on Open-Source Software Marius will be happy to hear from them :-)
Here is one way to improve the WYSIWYG stability:

However, i was thinking, until the new GWT editor is ready, would the bugs
in the current editor be patched? I guess not but I could be wrong. This
leaves "corporate users" with no choice till the GWT editor is ready, maybe
end of the year.
We're all longing for the new WYSIWYG editor to progress, we'll keep you
informed of the steps in here.
A great option would be to improve the end user
experience in the Wiki
editor, IF the effort is not significant. Something on the lines of
Dokuwiki, which has a toolbar for most Wiki editing functions so that the
end user need not necessarily remember the Wiki syntax. (Image attached).
I remember an user doing this some time ago. Check this :

instance.
I think you could even go for your own buttons as they look quite easy to
build on your own with minimal skills.
