If the `shortcut` directive instead required at +least one of `url` or `desc`, then shortcuts could just supply a description +without an URL. Since desc can contain arbitrary wiki markup, this would +allow shortcuts with multiple links, such as the mmlist shortcut proposed on +[[simple_text_parsing_or_regex_in_template_or_shortcut]], or a comprehensive +Debian package shortcut which linked to the package page and parenthetically +to the BTS and PTS.
