Fascinating point, Bill. And easy enough for charname.ijs to incorporate.

But I wouldn't recommend it. If you edit any Wiki page and try out the
following:

Wikiword. WikiWord. pperiod. PPeriod. [[pperiod]].  [[PPeriod]].

...you'll see that only 2 5 and 6 are recognised by MoinMoin as
referring to (absent) pages.

So the mechanism is a tricky one, and gives rise to confusing
instances. For this and several other reasons IMO it's best to stick
to fully lowercase alpha names for primitives-pages.

Moinmoin doesn't stop you creating a fully-lowercase named page.
Example: http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Vocabulary/backtick

(which is .../grave under my proposal)
