Sure thing.  Actually, it will have to go in sample-local.php, since 
PmWiki doesn't ship with a local.php to avoid overwrites when upgrading.

Also, sample-local.php has traditionally been distributed in the scripts/ 
directory--perhaps it should go in local/ instead?

It's coming up in another message--actually, I started writing that
message last night and found some things I didn't like, so I then decided 
I had to (again) change the layout internals because it still wasn't
quite right.  However, I think I have it pretty much like I want it 
now and will send along some notes shortly.  :-)
