Yes, this is an idea I had a long time ago. I had a problem at work where
we wanted to merge two separate Wikis and there were all sorts of
namespace collisions I had to think about. I thought that if all pages
links were stored externally, and the pages were stored with tokens, that
it would open up some interesting possibilities, among them the renaming
of pages and therefore all the links to that page. I had some other ideas
about the possibility of this architecture which I hope I wrote down
somewhere... if not we'll rediscover them! :-)

Yes, got it, it will go out in the 1.1.7 release, which I am close to
doing. Are you going to make any more commits?
