Merge proposal 

Please see WT:Only_make_links_that_are_relevant_to_the_context#Break 1 for the current discussion.  I'm letting everyone know who has a comment on the relevant talk pages.  Obviously, we're not going to push anything through without a full discussion of every issue, including whether to merge at all.  My sense is that there's wide agreement on all the big points, but the devil is in the details. - Dan  (send/receive)
