Completely agreed here. I was first against Source Mode when the main wiki I was editing at the time disabled the visual editor completely, but I quickly got used it it and have found that source editing is much more practical than trying to use any of those WYSIWYG editors! For starters, you don't have to pause what you're writing to add a link or an image or anything because it all just flows with the text, and with preview mode so wonderfully accessible, there really is no need for any visual editor in my opinion. It also shows you the raw code of what's going on the page so you don't get any nasty surprises! Also, much easier for adding parameters to templates etc. Try turning visual off for a week in your preferences and see what you think!
