Since gerrit:131263 , it seems to me that the excellent mwpfh is going to be used more and more extensively within our framework.
Am I right? For example, the DuplicateReferences detection and fix in reflinks.py could be brightly refactored without regular expressions.
Or are we supposed to do the opposite conversion, where possible?

My preference is to depend on mwpfh where possible - their parser support is much better than ours, and it makes much more sense to concentrate efforts in one place. However, there's one blocker for this: the Windows support of wmpfh. It uses a C extension, and it's hard to build C extensions under Windows -- so we'd need to help Windows users along installing it in some way. I've updated the issue at https://github.com/earwig/mwparserfromhell/issues/68 with some notes for that.
