If you look at:

http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/DynamicWikiTrails

you will see that it defines a markup called (:trailindex:).
This markup does something very similar to what I believe
you want, it adds ?Trail=<trailindexpage> to every pagelink
on the current page (the current page is <trailindexpage>).


I always thought that perhaps a generic markup should be
created to do such a thing, something perhaps like this:

(:queryarg arg=value:)

which would add ?arg=value to the all pagelinks.  A
subsequent

(:queryarg foo=bar:)

on the same page would make it look like this:

 ?arg=value&foo=bar


I am sorry that I am not providing an implemented 
solution for you, but if you look at the way that
the recipe implements trailindex, you could probably
very easily implement the solution that I suggest 
above.

I hope that helps a bit,
