I don't like WikiStyle links. They have several problems:
a) They can unintentionally create links to non-existant resources.
It's especially an issue with code documentation, 'coz we use
the StudlyCaps naming convention throughout Mozilla.
b) There is *no* inherent URI structure.
c) Accessibility. And I don't just mean screen readers, but search
engines as well.
If we want a structured text parser, reStructuredText[1] is one option.
IIRC, it doesn't accept HTML code as input, which may be a problem, but
it's become popular for Python docs, and it does have a sophisticated
set of constructs.
