Macros: this is more a "micro" than a macro: [{$xxxx$}] is simply
replaced by a string coming from the jspwiki.properties file (no
danger of infection there!).
The expansion is parsed for Wiki markup.
Whatever they are, they're not variables and should not be treated as
such. The semantics and the intent are completely different. This
is, as far as I am concerned, a kludge, and I would not be willing to
take it in. It needs more design, way more design than this.
Expanding the WikiMarkup should be done by either extending the
JSPWikiMarkupParser or adding new PageFilters.
If you have better ideas, I will buy them: I need such a mechanism
because http://www.destin.be/CAFE contains more than 10 thousand
pages coming from a database: generating plugin calls without
anyway to correct/adapt them globally is foolish.
As I said, develop a PageFilter to take care of this instead of a
hack in the VariableManager, that way others can use it too.
