Actually, scratch everything I said. It should be possible for Relink to
recognize the sum and src parameters. I just need to introduce another
fieldType. Currently, there is "title", "list", "reference", and "filter".
If there is a fifth, "wikitext", then macro parameters can be treated as
such, as well as fields, widget attributes, and list operators.
This'll take me a several days to properly code. My workarounds will work
in the meantime.
