sorry, I was considering on using the same code to the wiki pages in
the markmin syntax so that you could also make this kind of links in
wiki pages.
[[name http://example.com, args=[], vars={}]]
Other thing, you might want to consider...
check your example
page_name /controller/action/arg1/arg2?a=b
instead of b if you have a string such as 'welcome page', it won't
work because of the white space.
page_name /controller/action/arg1/arg2?a='Welcome page'
idea:
changing the meta-menu separator character to '|' or '||'
example:
page_name|/controller/action/arg1/arg2?a='Welcome page'
