+This is another blogging support thing, and it relies on
+[[pagespec_relative_to_a_target]] (but only to figure out whether a given page
+has a child). Basically, you give it a page called missingparents.mdwn,
+something like this:
+
+<pre>
+[[missingparents pages="posts/* and !posts/*/*" generate="""[[template id=year text="$page"]]"""]]
+[[missingparents pages="posts/*/* and !posts/*/*/*" generate="""[[template id=month text="$page"]]"""]]
+[[missingparents pages="posts/*/*/* and !posts/*/*/*/*" generate="""[[template id=day text="$page"]]"""]]
+</pre>
+
+And it scans the whole wiki for pages that match the pagespecs but are missing
+parents. If any are found, they are generated automatically using the text in
+the "generate" parameter (except $page is substituted for the page title).
+*These generated pages aren't kept in version control*, but of course they're
+ordinary wiki pages and can be edited by the web form or otherwise added, at
+which point the missingparents plugin lets go of them. (TODO: CGI.pm needs to
+know to rcs_add these pages if they are edited, and it doesn't.) If all of the
+children of a missingparent page goes away, the missingparent itself is
+unlinked automatically, and all missingparents are deleted on wiki rebuild.
+
+To implement this, I needed to tell ikiwiki that pages were being added and
+removed in a non-standard way, and so created functions newpage and delpage
+in the IkiWiki namespace to do these things. delpage is modeled on the
+Render.pm code that deletes pages, so I re-used it in Render.pm. I also
+needed a way to add files to be deleted on a refresh(), so I added a
+needsdelete hook, parallel in form to needsbuild.
+
+This patch, or one like it, would enable better blogging support, by adding
+the ability to hierarchically organize blog posts and automatically generate
+structural pages for year, month, or day. Please apply. --Ethan
