Pm?  Do these work just like titles?  That is, they need to be a page
parameter AND be set in the page, or just inserted into to the source
code and updated?  I'm not sure.

It's kind of tricky as is, because theres no easy way to get a :) into
a hidden text variable.  In this case the edit command would look for
it in the editbody field.  It would break the markup.

I either need to have a way to escape it, do a substitution, add it to
the directives list and try the {( )} syntax (might not work) or
something else.  Anyone have a suggestion?

On the other hand if it is a new page you could put it in the template
and then insert the field into the parameter part of the directive.
Not easy to edit though.

Perhaps I need another system for dealing with these kind of things--a
different extension.  And then just use a more carefully constricted
attr command just for passwords...  But a way to pass a :) into a
field would be a more generic solution.
