No, for the non-technical person they really need to become more technical.
This isn't 1999 when websites were toys - today we care something about
semantics and accessibility. I think we should stop saying "here is your
text box, enter content in it the way it looks good to you".

I've introduced Textile markup to many (Markdown, because of indenting
semantics, is not my choice for textboxes) young people and they never had
any trouble getting it. As for the ignorant older people who just want to
put stuff online without caring about anything you tell them, I wouldn't
even let them near textboxes.
