I don't know anyone who doesn't think it's reasonable.  Inlining is far
better, however, for technical reasons that I outlined earlier.
Hopefully it will be generally possible in a not-too-distant future
version of Wikipedia to let the user control what he sees using
server-side controls instead of his browser controls; I do not expect this
to appease those who seem to want a bowdlerpedia, however.
