Ok, so I want this clarified by Juergen then. I recall him saying
something about how in Wicket 1.2 you didn't need a <wicket:head> in
children pages because <head> would get used automatically.

I made some Wiki contributions. My point wasn't whether I can
contribute to Wiki once I know an answer (clearly I can) but rather that
if I am the person asking a question it is illogical to expect me to
post an answer to Wiki before I know it myself.
