Thank you, we need to explore the solution space some more :)
I bolded the points that I'm not sure about or that I don't think I understand fully. Here they are with comments:
* Compatible with most well-written wiki articles (here, WikiPedia, etc.)
** This is a truizm, because you obviously define "well written" as "compatible with this markup" :)
* Compatible with most modern mechanical typewriters.
** As far as my experiences with mechanical typewriters go, the {{{<pre>}}} tag is compatible with them...
* Comfortable for copywriters who can use them to structure the source.
** This is one of the points of ignoring the signle newlines, and your solution doesn't allow this -- because every newline in the source becomes meaningful, so the copywriter cannot use new lines to structure the source the way they think it would make it more readable -- they are left with spaces and tabs only.
* Could make copy and paste easier on some platforms.
** Explain? What paltforms? Copy-paste from what?
* Allows posting text with wrapped lines without the need of additional reformatting,
** ... just creates a million one-line paragraphs which were not present in the original...
* Users have no limited way to express
** You didn't finish this point?
* Could break some ill-formatted articles.
** See the first point. Whatever format we choose, ill-formatted text will break it and well-formed text will be ok -- for the format we choose, of course.
