IkiWiki generates HTML in rst files pretty much all the time. As
such, we should enable raw HTML support. --Ethan

+I am sorry, but I am confused. Does this mean that I can use Ikiwiki
+features that translate to HTML in rst files? For example, when I use a
+\[[pagename]]-style link in a rst file, the page generated by Ikiwiki's rst
+plugin says <a href="./../pagename/">pagename</a> as text. The link
+is expanded correctly, but the result isn't interpreted as HTML. Is that
+what is supposed to happen? --Peter
