This is not what you're asking for/about, but mediawikiafs aims to
map from/to a 'mediawiki' wiki as an ordinary filesystem, so you
can edit files locally and so on. It handles the wiki interface,
and maybe it'd be worth seeing how they do it. It only works for
the mediawiki flavor, so may or may not be applicable directly.
I'll be interested in seeing other responses to your query, as I
have a hard time editing using browsers. I wonder if there's a
browser which uses a vi-like interface?...

There's always vimperator (http://vimperator.mozdev.org/).
I vacillate between thinking that this is incredibly cool, and thinking
that it is completely insane.

(It's all text) an extension for Firefox/Iceweasel that exports
and imports textareas to, say, a terminal running vim.
