+The htmltidy plugin as in the Backports.org version 2.32.3~bpo40+1 of ikiwiki does not play well with other usages of HTML Tidy since it has no possibility to use an alternative config file.
+
+E.g. since I usually use HTML Tidy manually only to check and not to fix HTML, I have "write-back: no" in my $HOME/.tidyrc which throws an awful lot of Perl warnings and renders all ikiwiki pages empty as soon as I enable htmltidy.
+
+I see two possibilities how to fix this:
+
+1) Replace "$pid=open2(*IN, *OUT, 'tidy -quiet -asxhtml -utf8 --show-body-only yes -
+-show-warnings no --tidy-mark no');" by "$pid=open2(*IN, *OUT, 'tidy -quiet -asxhtml -utf8 --show-body-only yes -
+-show-warnings no --tidy-mark no --write-back yes');" -- This is the fastest fix, but not very elegant, since it doesn't solve the general problem.
+
+2) Make it configurable via ikiwiki.setup as e.g.with the tags plugin. Haven't looked into this code yet.

+[[plugins/lockedit]] adds the form fields for a [[pagespec]] to preferences. This pagespec should be supplied "raw"; i.e., without quotes around it. Inexperienced users (such as [[myself|jondowland]]) may provide an invalid pagespec, such as one with quotes on it. This will be merrily accepted by the form, but will cause no locking to take place.
+
+Perhaps some validation should be performed on the pagespec and the form-submission return include "warning: this pagespec is invalid" or "warning: this pagespec does not match any existing pages" or similar.

+As mentioned on IRC, I think a cheap form of [[todo/ACL]] can be maintained using [OpenID in ikiwiki](http://packages.qa.debian.org/libn/libnet-openid-consumer-perl.html).
+
+Say I want to limit edits to [wiki.webvm.net](http://wiki.webvm.net/) to users of that machine. For the user 'hendry' I create a http://hendry.webvm.net/ OpenID (which actually delegates to http://hendry.myopenid.com/). And likewise for other users.
+
+So I suggest an ikiwiki configuration like:
+
+     users => ["*.webvm.net"],
+
+Would only allow edits from openIDs of that form.
