Excellent.
We have been working on a category selector widget, as well as an
accompanying category query form (searches for articles w/in
categories), and re-categorizer. But WYSIWYG editing, and many of the
existing extensions would surely fit well here too.
I would sure appreciate it if some of the core MW developers weighed in
on this idea, since I would hope this effort would be set up with their
blessing (and occasional guidance and input).
Again, this model was used extremely successfully in the Plone world,
with their collective project (
www.sf.net/projects/collective > 200
developers) and other sites serving to recommend and rate these
products.
Some folks might initially object to an "open" cvs project, where
everyone can in theory modify each other's work, but this concept
should not be very foreign to wikipedian's ;-)
I guess if I don't hear back from anyone, I will just try go ahead and

Fascinating, Jonah; I for one would like to help out,
having navigated limbo myself.
We'd have to avoid becoming a ghetto for exiled exten-
sions, of course; which we could accomplish, I'm sure, by
quality of implementation.
