Comment (by mrwweb):

 @azaozz Can you describe the user testing you've done? (Setup, rough
 script, what you're specifically trying to learn, any other take-aways
 besides what you shared) I think getting specific would help us understand
 what type of testing you have in mind. I'm pro-testing, but have the same
 reservations as @celloexpressions. It's extremely dangerous to take a
 "this is for your own good, you just don't know it" approach to these
 change, but I think there's some truth to that in this case. The editor is
 a way to provide the appropriate tools to allow unknowledgable users make
 the best technical formatting decisions possible.

 WordCamp Seattle is coming up soon. I'd be willing to try to do a bit of
 user testing during contributor day if we can all agree on a script/test.
