Wanted Topics

Definition: Topics that do not exist, but other topics link to it. This is visually indicated with a linked question mark behind a WikiWord.

It would be nice if TWiki had a report showing all wanted topics in a web. There are probably two reports, one listing wanted topics referred to in current web, and one referred to in all webs. This feature would help the TWikiAdvocacy in WikiMatrix.

This could be packaged as a Plugin. For example, as a WantedTopicsPlugin? expanding a %WANTEDTOPICS{format="!$topic" separator=", "}%.

Bumping this topic since this is a useful feature. We have the opposite now: The TopicReferencePlugin finds orphaned topics. This Plugin could be enhanced to find wanted topics.
