Thinking about it, could there be an option to make all macro parameters
recognised as WikiText even if they aren't added to the whitelist, which
could then be overridden by whitelist entries? I suppose that would also
mean there would need to be an additional 'None' type as well. That would
be more intuitive in my mind.
