If this were in place and we could accept contributions through GitHub Pull Requests, then someone could fork via the GitHub Web UI, edit and commit directly in their browser, and we're *almost* on the same level as a wiki in terms of workflow difficulty. You could practically bridge the entire difference by hosting a wiki-like interface that makes calls to the appropriate GitHub APIs with properly formed commit messages, etc behind the scenes. But that's just icing on the cake.
