Hmm.. I'm still not keen on the idea of letting apache writing to any file
in that directory -- not to mention that it might be bit confusing that
some files are writable by apache and others aren't.

there currently are more non-page files in wiki.d (then they could be
moved to var/).
What are these other files in wiki.d/?
