Note that except for 1/ you get pretty much all that on Debian/Ubuntu with the combination of Debian packages for the war and configuration files and the Distribution Wyzard for the wiki pages.

Situation: We are currently at XWiki X.Y and we want to upgrade to the latest XWiki version. Problem: Upgrading is complex :-(
Wish: I wish that XWiki has an "Check for update" button. If a new version of XWiki is released, this button will report the newest XWiki version. A new button "Upgrade Wiki" will become available. If the admin presses that button...
1) A backup of the current Wiki(s) will be made 2) XWiki will compare the current Wiki X.Y with the version X.Y stored at www.xwiki.org to detect any modifications (like XWiki.XWikiPreferences, XWiki.WebPreferences, XWiki.XWikiAllGroup, XWiki.Admin, *.*Config, XWiki.XWikiServerXwiki, or any other page that has been modified, such as Main.WebHome, a modified Panel, etc. 3) Perform the upgrade of all the XWiki components 4) Merge any configuration files
All automaticly, just like updating an iPhone or Android App. I just click on "Install" and the new version of my App will be downloaded/installed.
Wishful thinking?
