-> I am thinking that it would be useful to parse parts of one wiki page into another. Here something like [[page=anchor]] would be really nice to simply parse the content of that section, as opposed to [[page#anchor]] which only creates a link to that section. -- [[Timoses]]

I like your suggestion because it's short and conscise. However, it would be nice to be able to refer to more or less arbitrary meta tags in links, not just "title". To do that, the link needs two parameters: the page name and the tag name, i.e. \[[pagename!metatag]]. Any sufficiently weird separater can be used instead of '!', of course. I like \[[pagename->metatag]], too, because it reminds me of accessing a data member of a structure (which is what referencing a meta tag is, really). --Peter
