More and more, ConcourseConnect uses wiki markup for storing information. We use it for the Activity Stream, Content Areas, the Wiki itself, and now in the Discussion Forums. This was a decision so that linking permissions and specific security and formatting constraints could be made on the input on the data to achieve a consistent output of the data. The nice thing is that the data is easily converted to other formats too, like PDF. It bares a small resemblance to MediaWiki.
With that said, the Wiki can embed Videos and Images and it was always a thought that it would handle other media types as well, although no work was done. I would love to see a structure that allows for easily embedding these media types (and new ones) without giving up the security constraints. I think this is possible by adding a new wiki markup handler.
I'll elaborate more in the, ahem, Wiki...
