When playing with the visual editor this morning I noticed that myself too.
It would be nice if the markup could be edited as well as the parsed
version. I mean don't forget that it's going to be hard to add {{#ifeq:}}
and all those syntax parsers if you can't edit the source code to it.

This is possibly the greatest step forward that the VisualEditor
promises to bring Mediawiki. Odd that it was hardly mentioned in the
tldr thread "Odd plans on Future/Parser_plan - are they true?".
Perhaps some people have not tried the new editor?
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:VisualEditorSandbox
How to edit the Wikitext there, and immediately see the parsed result during
editing?
(NOT vice versa, like now - edit parsed result and see the code)
