Automatic linking to missing tiddlers is a pretty useful core wiki feature. There would be a performance penalty for making it configurable. A wrinkle is that we actually do automatic link detection at parse time (rather than render time). Because we cache the results of parsing a tiddler the parsing process mustn't depend on the values of any other tiddlers. So there'd have to be some rejigging to get things working properly.
