My thinking is along the following lines:

Take the Classic tmpl file.  In it are the following lines:
<!--PageFooterFmt-->
   <div id='wikifoot'>
     <hr />
     <div class='footnav'>
       <a href='$PageUrl?action=edit'>$[Edit Page]</a> -
       <a href='$PageUrl?action=diff'>$[Page History]</a> -
       <a href='$PageUrl?action=print' target='_blank'>$[Printable 
View]</a> -
       <a href='$ScriptUrl/$[$Group/RecentChanges]'>$[Recent Changes]</a> -
       <a href='$ScriptUrl/$[PmWiki/WikiHelp]'>$[WikiHelp]</a> -
       <a href='$ScriptUrl/$[Main/SearchWiki]'>$[SearchWiki]</a></div>
     <div class='lastmod'>$[Page last modified on $LastModified]</div></div>

I think that during development, maintenance, or documentation on a 
template, it might be helpful to be able to do the following:
<!--PageFooterFmt-->
   <div id='wikifoot'>
     <hr />
     <div class='footnav'>
       <a href='$PageUrl?action=edit'>$[Edit Page]</a> -
       <a href='$PageUrl?action=diff'>$[Page History]</a> -
       <a href='$PageUrl?action=print' target='_blank'>$[Printable 
View]</a> -
<!-- This section needs to be refined and extended. -JF 2/22/04
       <a href='$ScriptUrl/$[$Group/RecentChanges]'>$[Recent Changes]</a> -
       <a href='$ScriptUrl/$[PmWiki/WikiHelp]'>$[WikiHelp]</a> -
       <a href='$ScriptUrl/$[Main/SearchWiki]'>$[SearchWiki]</a>
-->
     </div>
     <div class='lastmod'>$[Page last modified on $LastModified]</div></div>

Hope this helps explain what I'm thinking about.
