I haven't looked deeply into printable-page.php or some of the other
PmWiki printer-friendly recipes, but I'm strongly considering it for 0.6
and would really appreciate any advice/tips on implementation (or pointers
about where to look for more about print stylesheets).

Having more customizable output for page revisions (including CSS)
is definitely planned for 0.6, but it's "on hold" until I resolve the
changes to the diff engine itself.  I'm looking into having a totally
PHP-based diff engine as an optional replacement for the calls to
external diff/patch utilities, but I'm a bit concerned about the speed
and memory requirements that result from doing this in PHP.  So, as soon
as I have that resolved I'll be redoing the output format for Page
Revisions.
