-This plugin is included in ikiwiki, but is not enabled by default.

+Warning: Any change to the sidebar will cause a rebuild of the whole wiki,
+since every page includes a copy that has to be updated. This can

+directives, since any changes to pages inlined or mapped onto the sidebar
+will change the sidebar and cause a full wiki rebuild.
