Oh... things like <code>[[User:Dantman|Dantman]] [Daniel Friesen]</code> aren't 
going to be something simple like this rev. That's changing markup in a lot of 
places this is just a change to text, that's going to require a separate 
feature. And that's not something that'll work in a unified way. There will be 
places where a combined html display like that may not be simply possible.
