Some points:

A- Fix places without "format"

a) inline format info (like trusttest -> Sam)
b) add formatxxx fields in all missing places. Naming schema "xxxformat" (exam. "descriptionformat"). (don't forget backup & restore). Need conversion to HTML format (always enabled plugin).

B- Make them modular (pluggable. OOP) (lib/format and lib/formatlib.php, get_format()->do_stuff())

C- Enable at site/course levels?

D- Upgrade to detect formats should be clever (and will be heavy!)

E- Editors "attached" to formats.

F- Can have "special" editors for other formats.

G- 1 user preference (format & editor) plus 1 preference to "disable editor"

H- Wiki format (mediawiki). Coming from nwiki hopefully.

I - Conflicts between formats and some filters sharing same syntax:

a) make filters to use prefixes and allow them to be automatically informed to the formats. Complex.
b) Use some alternate syntax (a safe one)

J- Filters: Any relation with formats? Enable/disable them by format?

K - Offtopic: Posibility to enable/disable filters by context.
