The way to allow hyphens or anything else in wiki words is to subclass the
formatter. I won't go into detail here and now. Maybe someone else can.

I decided to make the wiki link limited to unicode letters and numbers. Keep
it simple. IIRC that means no '-' or ':'. I'm not against folks using this. I
just wanted the core to be simple.

The regexp for wiki links currently is:

    qr/[$UPPER](?=[$WORD]*[$UPPER])(?=[$WORD]*[$LOWER])[$WORD]+/

If that means "ignored" well sorry about that. I read everything (eventually)
(usually), but I have becomed swamped by the relative success of my ideas, so
I can't respond to everything. I just try to stuff it all back in my wetware
so hopefully it's there when I get a few tuits.
