I agree with ? superscript. ? to be consistent with most other 
wikis and superscript to move it out of the normal position.
I added an option that removes the page name from the link text 
and gives it a faint dotted bottom border, with a bold sup ?

I think pmwiki ought to:
- follow the wiki convention by using a ?
- differentiate the link text from normal text
- be relaxed about how to display the link text

Link text treatment will probably vary from site to site, 
depending on how existing pages and other links get displayed.

My 5? worth.
