Loosening the rules for wiki page name detection opens a can of
worms... you start getting all kinds of words that are suddenly
marked up as missing pages. There are a couple of tickets about this
kind of change, but we've so far stayed with the current simple rules
in Trac.
I don't see the ugly argument, though, at least not with 0.9. You can
just write:
[wiki:HowToPutYourStuffOnTheSAN]
and Trac will link that, and use HowToPutYourStuffOnTheSAN as link
label. The reader will not notice you used an explicit wiki-linking
syntax in the wiki text.
Cheers,
Chris
