Hi, Lukas!
I can understand that a simple syntax keep it easy writing some content.
My intention was keeping fingertips writing my ideas in the wiki. On the other
side the idea using some sort of XML-tags bring us the possibility write
some extensions like a building set.
I'm not so familiar with XML but in my understanding of this we could bring
the translation to other formats into the tags. With an open repository of
these buildingblocks everybody can decide what he want.
The loosers in this kind of solution are my fingers ;-).

My mistake. Is it possible to add a comment "Do not touch, it's generated"?
