i don't think its that much of a leap foward, if anything the only benefit is a simpler way to communicate instead of having a user edit your talk page to add a message, where they sometimes forget or choose not to sign, or end up erasing messages already there or typing it without a title so there's no separation between one persons message and another's. it benefits people who aren't familiar with the current talk page, but otherwise detracts from those who are, not to mention the wall has to be loaded in its entirety, so it takes that much longer to read messages, if you have say, 3 years worth, unless it only loads certain segments at a time. even then, i still think the current format is simpler once your used to it.
