* This could be improved with [[todo/source_link]].
* Currently the source highlighting is a little problematic, as there can be two source files with the same wikiname.
e.g. a `hello-world.c` and `hello-world.h`. See [[bugs/multiple_pages_with_same_name]]
> That bug was fixed before you linked to the page. :-)
* Trac 'Timeline' feature: view history of the RCS - the `recentchanges` button.
* Trac 'Roadmap' feature: Which TODOs/bugs are needed for which milestones. Use the [[plugins/progress]] directive to show percentage complete for each milestone.

we could use an external plugin..)

@ -41,6 +42,9 @@ General problems:
* The whole-file plugins tend to have a problem that things that look like
wikilinks in the source code get munged into links by ikiwiki, which can
have confusing results. Similar problem with preprocessor directives.
One approach that's also been requested for eg,
[[plugins/contrib/mediawiki]] is to allow controlling which linkification
types a page type can have on it.
* The whole-file plugins all get confused if there is a `foo.c` and a `foo.h`.
This is trivially fixable now by passing the keepextension option when
registering the htmlize hooks, though.

about it is that, when creating a new page, you can then pick "c" or
"h" or "pl" etc from the dropdown that normally has "mdwn" etc in it.
Is this a bug, or a feature? (Even if a feature, plugins with many
extensions make the dropdown unusable..)
* The per page highlighters can't handle "Makefile", or other files
without a significant extension.
*
extensions make the dropdown unusable.. One way to deal with that is have
a config setting that lists what extensions to offer highlighting for.
Most people won't need/want the dozens some engines support.)
* The per page highlighters can't handle creating wiki pages from
"Makefile", or other files without a significant extension.
Not clear how to fix this, as ikiwiki is very oriented toward file
extensions. The workaround is to use a directive on a wiki page, pulling
in the Makefile.
