Well, hypothetically it could try to merge them, and if they merged
cleanly could present that.  Otherwise it could present a page
pointing at both.

I'm not too sure that's all that interesting, though: don't you run
ikiwiki in order to produce static HTML?  In which case it could just
abort and require you to merge?
