be disabled by setting the 'normalize' to a false value
- add 'passthrough_naked_tags' attribute, which accepts a list of
tags to be replaced with their content if the tags contain no
attributes
- add on-demand rule-loading so that rules that depend on
attribute values will be updated when attributes are updated

the now-defunct 'wiki_page_extractor' attribute
- use File::Slurp (if available) for file slurping

- fix bug in how 'wrap_in_html' is applied to files (previously it

'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=edit&title=' to be
specified simultaneously
- allow wiki URIs in 'wiki_uri' attribute to be either a string (as before)
or a regexp, the latter capturing the wiki page title in parentheses

extracts a wiki page title given a URI object (see bug #17330)
