Comment(by tommyd@…):

 rst is short for reStructuredText, a special wiki syntax which ikiwiki
 apparently supports through this plugin.

 The thing with the plugins is that there are dozens of them for various
 purposes and adding support for them all would pull in just too many
 dependencies (f.e. it has a plugin for just every version control system,
 which would probably require a variant to work correctly with). Adding
 variants for them all would be counter-productive, since I'm pretty sure
 I'm unable to maintain all of these.

 So I see two other options here: Patch rst(.py) so that it works with the
 Python it finds somewhere in the path or leave it as is (WONTFIX), because
 I'd open pandoras box if I enable support for each and every plugin.
