newer operas should do it, as stated in the docs.

no, htmlarea already checks for supported browsers and if none is found 
just the wikiMarkup in the textarea is used.

with htmelarea-enabled I add the original wikimarkup in a hidden div tag 
after the textarea, so that htmlarea can switch betwween wysiwyg, raw 
html and wiki mode.

Initially I liked the UI and wanted to rewite htmlarea to support 
wikiformatting.
I can still do it with the tools inside htmlarea,
but then the wikiformat couldn't be rendered. no wysiwyg.
but still the most promising option for me.
