To be honest, if anything I would like to see Source be the default editor rather than Visual. If it is the case that we would be alienating unskilled editors if we had Source as the default, we are also alienating skilled wiki-migrants by telling them to use an inefficient editting platform. It's odd, I personally don't get the way the visual editors are supposed to work and they make far less sense to me than the basic markup which is simple and easy to understand.

I'm not particularly skilled with HTML or code in general, but it seems less confusing to me than the visual editors which don't seem to do much but show-up little icons showing that there's some kind of item there to be worked with(but doesn't explain how to work with that item clearly).
