It's just the if ($needcontent) {} chunk. Would a patch that accepts a perl sub smuggled through something like $params{inliner_} be accepted? If that param exists, call it instead of the current content of that chunk. Pass $page, %params, and $template. Receive $content, possibly seeing $template modified. The custom directives can add inliner_ to %params and call IkiWiki::preprocess_inline. I suppose IkiWiki::Plugin::inline could be modified to strip any *_ out of the directive's arguments to prevent any custom behavior from leaking into the inline directive. + +I'm about to try this for a CV/resume type of thing.
