We also use a lot links, lists, indents, tables and attachments, which are 
more advanced markup. It's not difficult or complex for us who have been using 
wikis dayly for years, but it is very different for someone who only used word 
processing software in their lives.

I strongly agree about the consistency problem, and the "editor" part can be 
configured to use a subset of what it does now, with only a few predefined 
styles.

Oh, it will only be a recipe/module, an integration in the core is not 
planned.
