I don't segregate my blog entries into a directory, but instead want
my blog to simply consist of all pages that have been tagged. That is,
I'd like to have my blog page look like this:

	\[[!inline pages="link(tag/*)"]]

That doesn't work in ikiwiki 2.1, but I have it
[working](http://www.cworth.org/blog) with the following patch:
