Is there a way to retrieve the current user name with wiki-syntax, like so: {{USER}} ( returning: "User:Rolf Lampa" )

No, as that would break caching.

Ah, you only regard use for Wikipedia... =). I use MW also for many small sites where I'ld have very good use of such a feature.

It's available for javascript as wgUserName, though.

That'll do, I think. Thx.
