Oh and by "section link" I mean something like: "(→A section)"

Linker::formatComment() produces the section autocomment links; since most such are displayed on Recent Changes or
history views, the link includes the destination page's full URL.

It might be useful to be able to pass another parameter to indicate that the rendered text appears on the page below so a
local anchor link can be made.

Patch that does what Brion suggested.

Added a $local parameter that trickles down from Linker::revComment ->
Linker::commentBlock -> Linker::formatComment. Doesn't break anything on my
test wiki, at least!

I think you changed it 17742, and applied it to the "old" summary as well.

Correct, I did do that in r17742, I was just too lazy to note it here. :D
