-It will also allow displaying the translation status in links to slave
-pages. Both were implemented, and reverted in commit

-Remove po/pot files when disabling the po plugin?
--------------------------------------------------
-
-ikiwiki now has a `disable` hook. Should the po plugin remove the po
-files from the source repository when it has been disabled?
-
-Translation of directives
--------------------------
-
-If a translated page contains a directive, it may expand to some english
-text, or text in whatever single language ikiwiki is configured to "speak".
-
-Maybe there could be a way to switch ikiwiki to speaking another language
-when building a non-english page? Then the directives would get translated.

-(We also will need this in order to use translated templates, when they are
-available.)

-Documentation
--------------
-
-Maybe write separate documentation depending on the people it targets:
-translators, wiki administrators, hackers. This plugin may be complex
-enough to deserve this.
