I'm hoping we might be able to sell it off the plan:
"If we implement a parser that renders 99% of the current corpus of wikitext

a reasonable process for rolling it out without too much disruption,
would you let us do it?"
I guess the answer would be yes. I'm not sure who all the angry comments in
