Summary: Create a flag to setFunctionHook to force the parser
not to parse parameters
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: Page rendering

In certain cases it will be useful if the parser does not parse the parameters
of parser functions elements.
Example:
{{#example:1|{{a}}|3}}
Would contain the values of '1', '{{a}}' and '3' rather than whatever {{a}}
must have parsed to for the second element.
I refer especially in consideration to the NaturalLanguageList extension
(http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:NaturalLanguageList) I am working on.
For instance, right now this is not really possible:
{{#list:format={{a|$1}}|blanks=true|0| |2|3| |5}}
Assuming if {{a}} was '''{{{1|nothing set}}}''', and its end result would
simply be:
'''0''', '''''', '''2''', '''3''', '''''' and '''5'''
Since the format={{a|$1}} had already been parsed into '''$1''', since '$1' is
not blank to the parser, and so 'nothing set' will never ever occur.
Instead it should be possible to set a flag on the setFunctionHook to say that
the elements should not be parsed, but rather be parsed upon request, e.g.
$parser->parseThis(element);
So the extension can decide which to be parsed where and when or if at all.
