This sounds really good from a contributor point of view, since it becomes easy to take a
snapshot of your writing to send out in other forms, and to backup your work.

I did not like the way the mediawiki markup is separated into small chunks for each headline,
since it makes it hard to grab a backup of the markup lang version.

Easy backup of writings will offset any fear of loss of work on the editable wiki,
and also reduce work to get back to a good state after a website hacker attack for instance.
