It just occurred to me that another option might be to let the user specify which links show in the side bar. I don't know how practicable that is, but I for one wouldn't mind if I could "turn off" the links to short and long pages, among others. (though I know others would).
Like, if the user is logged in as $username and if there is a page named user:$username/sidebar, that wiki page would be included in the sidebar instead of the standard menu. Or why stop at the sidebar - the entire user interface could be specified by user:$username/layout with a single <<PAGE>> describing where that users wants the page contents displayed.
Next step, put the wiki source code on a (meta) wiki, so anybody can edit it. :-)
