I'm not disagreeing with everything else you said. My main aim though is 
to try to make the documentation and tag schema machine readable, so 
that it is useful to more than just human readers. The wiki page or 
future equivalent would be derived from the schema, but so would the 
presets in the editors (in principle - we can't mandate this, obviously) 
  and the checking criteria in error checkers among other things (yes, I 
know there's more to error checking than just the tag names and values) 
and some of the rendering updates when tags change.
