don't know if this is what you were talking, but me, I'd
like a pluggable combo that will allow me to add simple
editing of pages (a small wiki or blog-like combo to plug
into any catalyst app), with choice of markup (Markdown,
Textile, WikiFormat) ... then my templating system should
just
inject the processed content into a template.

I don't know if that is feasible - but perhaps we could try
to define
some way of building components cross cutting the MVC
pattern.  Like a
threaded discussions component that you could attach to any
page and
that would contain the model part to store the posts the
controller to
manage them and the view templates.
