I don't want to sound like a curmugeon, but beware that much of your
audience is not yet convinced that TWiki is a particularly useful tool
for this purpose.  So it comes off badly when you argue "it *must* be
this way because that's the way TWiki requires it to me" -- many
people will see it as another reason for abandoning TWiki.

Let's turn these issues around and look at them from the user's point
of view, not the person who edits the text, but the poor sod who is
trying to *read* it.  What makes the *user's* life easier?
