* The expected rendering where any of these conditions is violated is the literal content of the element, with a highlighted error message added at the start of the element.
* Where these conditions are violated, the recommended rendering for the remainder of text is a preformatted-block (thus highlighting the error and avoiding any further issues due to extension element content unintendedly containing wiki-markup). Optionally, a highlighted error message may be added at the start of the element to explain the cause of the unexpected formatting to the content writer.

==Generic representation==
At line 55 added 10 lines
Generic extension elements greatly simplify all Wiki specific changes to content (including changes that may be necessary during major version upgrades) by narrowing the affected locations. They also enable WYSIWIG-Wiki editors to recognize parts as extensions, without having to interpret them.
The latter functionality could be taken still further (proposed in [[Talk.GenericExtensionElementProposal|discussions]]), by adding a cached rendered version of the extension element ("alt-text", "cached-result"). This is appropriate only for some extensions (e.g. not extensions adding markup or CSS). This functionality would benefit from being specified in Creole rather than being left to the extenders and implementers. To keep the constraints inside the extension element minimally, I propose to not use something like {{{[[[extension|cached-result]]]}}} but rather imagine it as piping the results into a second extension element:
{{{
[[[extension]]]|[[[optional cached-result]]]
}}}
Generic Creole editors could then display the content of the second element, perhaps with Javascript contract/expand functionality, and with warning their users that changes inside will be ignored.
The cached-result is automatically generated, so ease of typing is no concern here.
