Would that be an acceptable starting point?

I think this can be done without changing the file format, as
wrapfig seems to support all the floatflt options.
No, you need a file format change, if only for backwards compatibility.
Would you need one if you DIDN'T change the \begin -- \end commands? I'm not sure why you would actually have to do that. The only real change here is in the LaTeX output: \usepackage{wrapfig} instead of \usepackage{floatflt}. If 1.5.x doesn't support any of wrapfig's options that are not supported by floatflt, then it's backwards compatible. And new options could be supported for 1.6.x, and at that point the \begin -- \end change could be made, if only to ward off confusion.
