How about making the direct inserting of wiki syntax optional? Please.

Then I go to edit the code, and after a newline Zim is not in verbatim.

I don't use version control, but that's my own fault for trusting critical data to a 0.46 release software! I do have full system backups, but they are encrypted and a pain to decompress. I'm not sore at Zim for "causing" this, but I do expect it to be fixed. Whether it is a programming error, a bad design decision, or an oversight, it is still unexpected behaviour and likely to cause dataloss.
