The main thing I don't like about this new editor is it's incompatibility with wikitext. That was one thing the RTE got right, being able to change wikitext to code on publishing. I wouldn't want this thing on any wiki I edit until it can accept wikitext because it is so much easier to explain to people how to do things like add maintenance templates if you can just give them the "code" to copy/paste rather than having to explain about going into the different menus etc. Also, I am struggling to work the hyperlink feature on the new editor, and think it would be good to still be able to use square brackets for linking.
