The following patch adds a footer div on all pages to ease CSS themeing.
Indeed, the misc.tmpl, recentchanges.tmpl and editpage.tmpl templates lack such a div.
> So, the problem with this is that the default css inserts a horizontal
> line at the top of the footer div, and putting an empty footer on these
> other pages looks a bit weird. Any idea how to get around that?

>> * div content-wrap containing div header, div actions, ... div content

>> * div realfooter (to put credits, "Powered by ikiwiki", "Valid XHTML"...)
>> From my tests, it works: Just adding the divs, without touching the stylesheet,
