Just a few notes on initial testing:

If you try to index something (eg by URL munging) that doesn't have
any results, the page is just blank; it doesn't say "no results".
See for example
    http://the.earth.li/~kake/cgi-bin/wikibeta.pl?id=Marmalade&action=index

If you do a plus-link (+Foo) to a nonexistent page, then it displays
as Foo? where the ? is a link to edit the page -- there is nothing to
click on to index it.  I'm not sure whether this is a bug or a
feature; I'd say the former, since it breaks the expected behaviour of
a plus-link -- as I understand it, the plus links are about indexes
rather than pages.  See for example
    http://the.earth.li/~kake/cgi-bin/wikibeta.pl?Chinese_Food

I can't seem to make the second kind of link (>Foo) work at all; see for
example
    http://the.earth.li/~kake/cgi-bin/wikibeta.pl?Vegetarian_Food
