+
+This hook can be used to implement arbitrary access methods to control

additional parameters: `author`, `url`, and `subject`. The `subject`
parameter may also be filled with the user's comment about the change.

+### rename
+
+ hook(type => "rename", id => "foo", call => \&rename);
+
+When a page or set of pages is renamed, the referenced function is
+called for every page, and is passed named parameters:
+
+* `torename`: a reference to a hash with keys: `src`, `srcfile`,
+ `dest`, `destfile`, `required`.
+* `cgi`: a CGI object
+* `session`: a session object.
+
+Such a hook function returns any additional rename hashes it wants to
+add. This hook is applied recursively to returned additional rename
+hashes, so that it handles the case where two plugins use the hook:
+plugin A would see when plugin B adds a new file to be renamed.

the html markup used when displaying a date. Or it might want to override
`IkiWiki::formattime`, to change how a date is formatted. Or perhaps you
