Hmmm, maybe -- I'll have to clean my code up then for public use --
I'm a terrible PHP programmer :P

In the strictest sense covering the use of Dokuwiki, it's not a bug
but a 'wish' ... I cannot see a reason to expose Dokuwiki to the
public for 2 reasons -- I can't really code css very well so that
Dokuwiki looks right therefore it will never match my site layout
style and the wiki isn't publicly editable anyways so why expose the
interface just so people can hack on it?  I trust the upstream devs
enough to run the code they write but not enough to trust a
Dokuwiki/PHP inter-related bug won't be missed ... at least with my
version I know the code is unreachable except thru my (horrible) PHP
interface :P

I know it sounds strange but it's me; at any rate I will look at the
github and see if I'm smart enough to make heads or tails of it :)

Thx/Bill
