Given that I'm not familiar with bibtexmarkup, I need to look
at it.  But I was thinking it wouldn't seem to be at all
difficult to write markup rules for bibtex and wiki markup that
could coexist.  (But at this point I'm definitely speaking out
of place, since I haven't looked at bibtex, bibtexmarkup, the
bibtexmarkup recipe, etc. etc.)

I'll have it ready in the next release.  (The internal variables
will remain $HTMLHeaderFmt and $HTMLFooterFmt, but the directives
will be either.)
