+I'm writing my own CSS for ikiwiki. During this effort I often found the need of adding more class="" attributes to the default ikiwiki templates. This way more presentational aspects of visual formatting can be delegated to CSS and removed from the HTML structure.
+
+In this patch I plan to collect changes in this direction.
+
+The first, one-liner, patch is to use a "div" element with a
+class="actions" attribute for inline page as is done with non-inlined page.
+This way the same CSS formatting can be applied to div.actions in the CSS,
+while at the moment it must be duplicated for a span.actions (which I
+believe is also incorrect, since it will contain a "ul" element, not sure
+though). In case the markup should be differentiated it will still be
+possible relying on the fact that a div.actions is contained or not in a
+div.inlinepage.
+
+Here's the one-liner:

+The following adds a div element with class="trailer" around the meta-information
+added after an inlined page (namely: the post date, the tags, and the actions):
