Actually, if it did work with transclusion, then you'd probably need the
aliases list to load the dumps. Otherwise, you couldn't find the
templates if you don't have that list to resolve them with; since you
can't generate the complete list unless have the templates to parse them
from!
I think it would be ideal if this could be made to work on the search/go
form, without affecting things like links & transclusion, which would
potentially make the data so much harder to work with.
I can't say quite why, but this response feels to me like it takes this
idea even closer to "we don't rewrite the URL on redirects, and there's
a really good reason why" (which I don't remember right now, even
though Brion or Tim have explained it to me at least twicet. :-)
