Hello. I am new to Semantic MediaWiki.  I am looking for a tool that
captures the following functionality in MediaWiki.  From the usage
examples I've seen, the data (Attribute) mechanism works as a descriptor
of the current article.  That isn't exactly what I'm looking for here -- I
want to be able to describe and organize bits of text *within* an article.
 Any suggestions?

--- Desired Functionality ---
I would like to have the ability to put a tag around a specific bit of
text that serves as a named tag for that particular piece of text. The
"bit of text" is key: I don't want to tag an entire article, but only a
piece of it. For example, if in a design document I describe a scenario
that would be a good scenario to model, I'd like to be able to do the
following:

<tag name="model scenario" description="info about this instance of the tag">
 Scenario description text in the design document.
</tag>

Then, there should be a way to load a special page like "Tag:model
scenario", which would then show links to each place where the tag is
used. This might be a table, including the article title, a link to the
specific section where the tag may be found, and the optional description
for each specific instance of the tag.

Tagged text should be optionally highlighted on the article display page
("Show tag highlighting" option from the Sidebar), with a Google-style
popup showing the tag details upon mouseover.
--- End Desired Functionality ---

Any suggestions?

Thanks
- Joe Clark
