The difficult thing is not plain text. It becomes difficult,
when your authors need special typographie: making things bold,
italic, emphazise, list, table, ...
Then, they need some way to express what they want and
that makes it difficult.
You have lots of options:
* ZWiki: here HTML is replaced by structured text
You use indentation and simply typographie to
control the layout
* currently, there are several threads about "in-place" editing.
search the mailing list archives
* there are a number of WYSIWYG HTML editors.
Search the mailing list archives for details.
We will probably go the third way. It provides an authoring environment
similar to MS Word and hides HTML.
