I like the escape character, because it is quick. If Wikis were not about being quick and comfortable, we should use decent xhtml and forget about this discussion. So I personally believe having triple brace for preformatted block, double brace for neutral no-wiki span, and tilde for single character escape is not a clean design, but convenient and reasonable. I have worked for years on a TWiki where CamelCase cannot be turned (as JSPWiki allows), discussion XML Schemata for biodiversity (i.e. tons of unintended CamelCase). With a single character escape it was hard enough, but with braces around every 10th Word or so I probably would have walked away.

Gregor, I moved your comment here, because it touches some things I'd like to discuss that I think better fit here.
Your proposal does have a certain appeal. It is easier to type in the most common case (nowiki text), has certain kind of internal consistency ("more" escaping markup to also retain spacing), plays nicely with block pre's. I like it, even when there are two problems:
* we would have to change the markup for images
* we would have no way of making monospaced **and** wiki-formatted text (unless we keep the "##" just for this purpose)
Then again, {{{##{{{foo~}}}##}}} does look ugly and is hard to type.
What does others think about it?
