I prefer to use a current year, month and day to archive my blog posts, for example
`post/2007/11/12/foo-bar-baz` path is better for me then `post/foo-bar-baz`.
Unfortunately it seems that `rootpage` parameter of inline plugin is very static.
Is it a chance to make it more dynamic? Now I have to use `svn mkdir` command
to create appropriate subdirectories by hand.

I think that you could add builtin functions or variables, for example `current_year()`
or `$CURRENT_YEAR` to usage inside `rootpage` parameter. Something like for Manoj's
calendar plugin. Then my `rootpage` parameter could be like
`rootpage="post/current_year()/current_month()/current_day()"`. Another good hints
are welcomed ;)

What's your opinion, Joey? I hope it's also useful for another ikiwiki lovers :)
