I'm not sure if we should allow the initial_content GET arg in the 
redirect, or just a template argument to take the initial_content from a 
existing template page.

GET urls are limited in its length. pagenames are no problem.

Just to support "[...]" in the initial_content param?
Hmm, why not accept the template arg, which seems to be easier.

     function getDefaultArguments() {
         return array('s'            => false,
                      'template'     => false);
     }
...

         if ($template and $dbi->isWikiPage($template)) {
             $page = $dbi->getPage($template);
             $current = $page->getCurrentRevision();
             $version = $current->getVersion();
             $initial_content = $current->getPackedContent();
         }
...
