suggestions

Hi

I'd like to add a few things to awki, but would like to discuss how this
  could best be implemented:

* deletion of pages
AFAIK the original wiki deletes pages if you place "delete" as the only
text in them. Is this the way to go? Other suggestions?

* renaming of pages
I guess there should be a "Rename Page" link in the navigation. But
should we handle potential referring pages? If so, how? Traversing all
pages and substituting OldName with NewName?

* association of an IP with a WikiName
It would be nice to have something more meaningful in PageHistory than
simply IP addresses. What would be a good way to handle this? Cookies? A
simple way would be to specify the associations in the config, but that
would only make sense with a known, small group of contributers...

* edit lock
A simple way would be to touch a file with the PageName in
data/lockfiles when edit is called and remove it again when the page is
saved. If the visitor aborts the edit (doesn't save) the lock would
still be on, but a lock_time could be set from the config file and after
this time the lock is released (checked and potentionally removed by
edit). Do you see any problems with that approach? A better way?

BTW: I'm not sure how many people already visited the wiki I set up (I'm
not even sure how many people read this list), but I would appreciate
any feedback on the modified version of awki. Besides adding some
features, I even fixed a few bugs (for instance RCS showed up in the
PageList), and I think the modified awki is quite ready for use...
