Another consideration here is that the wiki has kind of fallen out of use,
with the embedded docs system generally being preferred. While i admit that
i pay a good deal of attention to fossil's wiki API (i've added several of
the wiki subcommands and the wiki API was amongst the first of the JSON
APIs added), i will admit that embedded docs are generally a better
solution. But the wiki is just too convenient (which is the only reason
anyone really uses a wiki, anyway). Once i get embedded docs support in the
JSON API, i probably won't touch the wiki API again.
