Great! Thanks. Here's another specific feedback point.

On the edit screen, it should explain *which* wiki syntax is in use, and
provide some immediate examples and a link to further documentation
about the formatting.

Here's an example wiki page that does this decently well. (It will ask
you sign in first, which merely involves typing in any username that you
make up).

I have still done just light testing so far, but performance has been sufficiently
good, and the way that "diffs" are handle with drag-and-drop is novel.
