It is even so fundamental that much of it is part of HTML5. Integrating it 
into TW would only bring the functionality closer to the user for easy 
application. To use Josiahs term here above, "we're selling TW short" by 
not featuring this in the standard distro.

Ok, but again, which templates to include is another matter. If no template 
is identified for a link... then it's just a normal link.

Actually, I'm reminded of the setting for tiddler titles - "show as text 
VS. show as link".  External links could be "show embedded (where template 
exists)  VS. show as plain link". 

So: No forced pinging and no forced display - which seem to be your main 
objections (and I agree with them!)  Rather, only the "infrastructure", i.e 
the equivalents of the richlink main macro and the dictionary, to simplify 
custom templates.
