I want to write my blog posts in a convenient format (Emacs org mode) but do not want commenters to be able to use this format for security reasons. This patch allows to configure which formats are allowed for writing comments.
Effectively, it restricts the formats enabled with add_plugin to those mentioned in comments_allowformats. If this is empty, all formats are allowed, which is the behavior without this patch.
The patch can be pulled from my repo (gitweb)
git pull git://rtime.felk.cvut.cz/sojka/ikiwiki.git restrict-comment-formats
