7 Every letter typed is 1 XMLHttpRequest so pasting content kills the current editor.

9 == See who's editing ==
10
11 * List of users on the side?
12 * Google docs like names pointing to text?
13 * Etherpad style highlighted text? (this looks ugly but is effective)
14 * Chat?

20 == Handling merging if there has been a concurrent editing ==

22 * Editing offline and storing content in your local storage?
23 ** This would mean an entire wiki available offline which is prohibitively complicated but perhaps it is useful for non-xwiki applications.
24 ** What if you lose wifi for a few minutes?
25 * How will edit history look like after concurrent edit?

27 == Support a live switch from wiki editing to real-time editing ==

33 I believe Google Wave had that [[concurrent editing feature>>http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=APbRxw_6Nf0]], so that other users could see as you type.

35 Google Wave source is currently known/available as [[Apache Wave>>http://incubator.apache.org/wave/]]
