The same for non-traversing relative links:

/Round 5/
becomes href="/Round 5/">/Round 5/</a>
instead of href="/Round 5">Round 5</a>

In core the trick is that a relative url with a *trailing slash* and no custom label, will expand to linking to the page without the trailing slash and a label with both the leading and trailing slash removed (note that "Round/" and "Round" are both valid and *separate* MediaWiki pages. A wiki can have both.

User documentation:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Link#Subpage_links

Our implementation is in js/lib/ext.core.LinkHandler.js, which in turn uses resolveTitle in mediawiki.parser.environment.js for relative link resolution.

Sorry, resolveTitle is only called implicitly when constructing a title. That will then only apply to the actual link, but not to the link text. I guess we could handle this in line 100 in the LinkHandler (in getWikiLinkTargetInfo, the relative link case) and update info.href accordingly. That will then be used to render the link text in case that is not explicitly specified.

Alternatively the stripping could also be a separate method that is called by renderWikiLink. Not sure if this should also apply to other namespaces. Can figure that out later, lets tackle regular wiki links first.
