most of the time. Couldn't it just be required that `$to` be a html page
name on input? Or require it be a non-html page name and always run
htmlpage on it.

* As we discussed in email, this will break handling of `foo/index.mdwn`
pages. Needs to be changed to generate `foo/index/index.html` for such
pages (though not for the toplevel `index`).

* This does make the resulting wikis much less browsable directly on the
filesystem, since `dir` to `dir/index.html` conversion is only handled by web
servers and so you end up browsing to a directory index all the time.
Wouldn't it be better to make the links themselves include the index.html?

+
* Some of the generated links are missing the trailing / , which is
innefficient since it leads to a http redirect when clicking on that
link. Seems to be limited to ".." links, and possibly only to
parentlinks. (Already fixed it for "." links.)

+
+ if ( !length $to ) {
+ return baseurl($from);
+ }
+
+
* It calles abs2rel about 16% more often with the patch, which makes it
a bit slower, since abs2rel is not very efficient. (This omits abs2rel
calls that might be memoized away already.) This seems to be due to one
* The rss page name generation code seems unnecesarily roundabout, I'm sure
that can be cleaned up somehow, perhaps by making `htmlpage` more
generic.

* `aggregate.pm` uses htmlpage in a way that breaks with its new behavior.
