Jeroen: personally I'm no longer sure what the right implementation is. A
textarea is easy, but we ought to ensure that an accepted license tag is
eventually invoked by that wikitext. And I see no obvious way to do that
programmatically. I thought that if there was some sort of hook that we could
invoke on template transclusions, but that doesn't seem to exist, and even if
it did we would only want it when parsing this special kind of wikitext... so
not practical.

So, the other answer is to do an autocompletion field with items drawn from
Category:License tags. That makes a lot more sense to me. And we don't have to
deal with the {{self| }} variants because this is only for third party stuff
anyway. I don't know if any of those License tags need arguments or if we can
just invoke them by name.

What do you think?

Anyway I could wait another day or two... I only asked for feedback on Friday
when most Europeans were asleep.
