I think there's a case to be made that custom, single-use-type clients 
might work well. If you want to use it as a wiki, fire up a wiki client. 
If you want to use it as a to-do list, fire up a to-do client. Each 
could impose its own rules about formatting and the visibility of 
discussion without having to care about storage or communication media 
at all.
