Melvin,

What's with the Tabulator specificity? How about simply requiring the 
use of User Agents that can contribute to a Data Wiki? Tabulator plugin 
simply makes browsers capable of WebID based Data Wiki contributions 
based on WebID ACLs.

The functionality of Tabulator as a Data Wiki editor is functionality 
that other WebID supporters can implement in their products etc..

As you know, I don't like any kind of product or technology specificity 
especially when our goal is interop via common standards etc..
