-* Support [[RecentChanges]] as a regular page containing a plugin that
-  updates each time there is a change, and statically builds the recent
-  changes list. (Would this be too expensive/inflexible? There might be
-  other ways to do it as a plugin, like making all links to RecentChanges
-  link to the cgi and have the cgi render it on demand.)

-  Or using an iframe
-  to inline the cgi, although firefox seems to render that nastily with
-  nested scroll bars. :-(
