Fair enough.

I thought about that. I just didn't get to it. Opening up more of the image
syntax (including linking) is a good idea IMO. However, I'm a bit leery of
opening up all wikitext. This pfunc is designed for putting little clickable
things in the upper right corner of articles, and I'm afraid what opening up
the syntax might encourage.

At least I did something right :)
