Gobby might solve the conflicts, but otherwise I don't think it'd be a
good solution.

What they're working on is forms saving results into a database. It will
be easier for testers to submit test results and definitely easier for
engineers to process the results, make stats etc. That's another issue
with wiki, it's quite difficult to parse tables and process the data
automatically.
