Hm, I'm not seeing how this creates a problem. If the user doesn't set 
$PageEditFmt, and the template doesn't set $PageEditFmt, then PmWiki 
should just fall back to setting the default, right? Not only that, but 
PageEditFmt isn't actually contained in $BasicLayoutVars[], so this 
patch shouldn't even affect that.
