Methinks staff are simply prioritising the visual editor. However, they are looking at visually updating it - this stylesheet got their attention at Connect :D

As a note, Wikia said they are interested in going HTTPS last year but Kirkburn said its not without its difficulties due to the domain's structure. If SSL is implemented on Wikia badly, the whole site could be less secure than vanilla HTTP.

While I'm agreeing on the limited experience of Wikia without Javascript, it may be worth mentioning that its also inherently a more secure experience. Well that's a given, but with a site like wikia I'm not expecting the most secure experience. It would be nice though.
