This would be great to see fixed. It's perplexing to have discussion => 0 in my configuration, not have any discussion links on my site, but still be able to add a discussion page by URL hacking something like this: /cgi-bin/ikiwiki/ikiwiki.cgi?page=posts%2Fdiscussion&do=edit.
spammers have figured that little trick out so I am consitently getting spammed checked into my git repository.
I'm not really sure if this patch introduced other problems, but it seems to have fixed my site:

If libdir is configured to be ~/.ikiwiki in your ikiwiki.settings file, and you are running Debian, you can do the following:
mkdir -p ~/.ikiwiki/IkiWiki/Plugin
cp /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Plugin/opendiscussion.pm ~/.ikiwiki/IkiWiki/Plugin/
And then apply the patch above to ~/.ikiwiki/Ikiwiki/Plugin/opendiscussion.pm.
