Don't we already have this with stuff like editintro/preload etc.?

Yeah, but an explicit thing rather than something we're expecting to kill. Maybe ?action=edit&editor=wikitext etc.?

Oh, oops, that was from the wrong account. :-)

If we make editor=wikitext, does that mean we would want to support editor=visualeditor as well, as an alias for veaction=edit? :/

Killing veaction= entirely would be great, but doing that might be a second ticket?
