Actually, when Patrick doesn't reply, it is almost certain that what we beg 
for can be done quite simply with a recipe.

Here is something that does all this. Patrick, can you please look at this 
code to see if it is not dangerous of some kind? Or if it may be 
optimized/simplified?

  SDV($SiteAttributesPage, FmtPageName('$SiteGroup.SiteAttributes', 
$pagename));
  if(PageExists($SiteAttributesPage) )
  {
    $p = ReadPage($SiteAttributesPage, READPAGE_CURRENT);
    foreach(array('read', 'edit', 'upload', 'attr') as $attr )
    {
      $k = $p["passwd$attr"];
      if($k >'')foreach(explode(' ', $k) as $kk)
        $DefaultPasswords[$attr][] = $kk;
    }
    if(PageTextVar($SiteAttributesPage, 'WikiTitle')>'')
      $WikiTitle = PageTextVar($SiteAttributesPage, 'WikiTitle') ;
  }
  
  SDV($GroupAttributesPage, FmtPageName('$Group.GroupAttributes', $pagename));
  if(PageExists($GroupAttributesPage) )
  {
    if(PageTextVar($GroupAttributesPage, 'GroupTitle')>'')
      $FmtPV['$GroupTitle'] = 
      '"'.htmlspecialchars(PageTextVar($GroupAttributesPage, 'GroupTitle')).'"';
    else $FmtPV['$GroupTitle'] 
      = "'". $AsSpacedFunction(PageVar($pagename, '$Group'))."'";
  }


Note that this code should probably be placed *after* any PageStore definition 
(per-group-sub-directories), after UTF-8 (xlpage-utf-8.php, XLPage())

Now, if this page Site.SiteAttributes has some passwords, they will be added 
into the $DefaultPasswords array, and my request is satisfied.

Secondly, if in that page there is a PageTextVar:
  WikiTitle:My website

then the $WikiTitle variable gets set.

Thirdly, is in Grpup.GroupAttributes there is a PageTextVar:
  GroupTitle:Some group

then the $GroupTitle  variable gets set, or else, the "spaced" version of the 
groupname is used.

And, inside the skin, you can use <a 
href='{$ScriptUrl}/{$Group}'>{$GroupTitle}</a>

Thanks,
Petko
