For 2.2.0-beta22 I'm adding an $EnableActions configuration variable;
if set, then PmWiki will do all of its initialization and other work,
but won't call any $HandleActions routines.

Then you can do the following:

    $EnableActions = 0;
    include('pmwiki.php');

This will initialize PmWiki (along with any configuration/customizations
that are being made, e.g. from local/config.php), but won't actually
perform any actions.  The caller can then call the desired action
or other functions as desired.

Would that work for your needs?
