Hi John,

I'm successfully using the wiki form for managinng a TO DO list in a 
small, rapidly changing project.

I provide you some feedback about further improvements:

1. print-as-one-page option

it would be useful to have a way to print both the summary table and the 
details of each page as one page. At the moment, I manually maintain a 
trail and I use the Publish WikiTrail extension. An idea could be to 
automatically generate the trail and move to print view.

It would be useful to also have the same options of wikilist in order to 
filter what to print, e.g., (:wikilistprint field1=value field2!=value2:)

2. possibility to modify the template and have the current pages to be 
automatically updated; an initial solution could provide:

for new fields, just add the new field in the right position with a 
default value (if any)

for removed field, remove the field from old pages

for modified fields in values, do nothing

3. rename "page" column

is it possible to rename the page column without changing the extension 
code? (a variable in the config.php, maybe)

useful if I want to name it e.g., issue or todo)


Thanks for the great contribution and I hope these suggestions help for 
future evolution.

Regards, Sergio
