+Name of toplevel index page

-While I've gotten translated underlays working, there is a bug
-if the wiki is currently using a page from the underlay, and the master
-language version is edited. This causes the edited page to be saved
-to srcdir.. and all the translations get set to 0% and their
-po files have the translated strings "emptied". What's really going on
-is that these are entirely new po files not based on the old ones
-in the basewiki, and thus lacking translations. --[[Joey]] 
+I was suprised that, when using the map directive, a pagespec of "*"
+listed all the translated pages as well as regular pages. That can 
+make a big difference to an existing wiki when po is turned on,
+and seems generally not wanted.
+(OTOH, you do want to match translated pages by
+default when locking pages.) --[[Joey]]
