Hopefully they will go one step better than that and provide the option of 
using a full WYSIWYG editor (for those who want to). This is discussed in 
the case of wikipedia here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG_editor 
. For anyone who hasn't seen a 'rich' editor inside a browser, the 
FCKEditor demo at http://www.fckeditor.net/demo/default.html is a good 
example of what can be done now -- the editor that opens on that page is 
live, not a screenshot.
