I don't think Source Mode is going anywhere. Wikia knows that if they kill source mode, they simultaneously will kill the functionality of all their wikis and singlehandedly destroy the Wikia network (I'm not exaggerating; visual mode simply isn't suited for technical editing, which is essential for all functional wikis). The whole point of Visual Mode is to make editing less daunting to new editors. I suppose, in that case, improving visual mode could only be a positive thing, so long as the "improvements" don't cause too many more bugs and glitches than present. In any case, it won't impact me in the slightest since I use source mode exclusively, and have for a long time.
