History

What the template really needs to be pleasant to use is a chunk of semantically-organised URI space which spits out HTTP 303 redirects to the implementation details:

…kusaba/board/thumb-for/post…kusaba/board/thumb/thumbnail-filename
…kusaba/board/image-for/post…kusaba/board/src/fullsize-image-filename
…kusaba/board/thread-for/post…kusaba/board/res/thread.html#post

And because MediaWiki is kind of dumb, a hack that lets it pretend everything is a PNG and lets the browser sort out the details with Content-Type:

…kusaba/board/thumb-for/post.png…kusaba/board/thumb-for/post

With these, it should be possible to write the template to accept as little as {{fanart|post=12345}}.

Reality

And now it is! The redirects are named foo-for/board.
