Imagine you want to explain, in an RST document, how to write a bracket-based wiki link. You would need to suppress the normal wiki-interpretation of the brackets. A sensible place for such suppression, as in StructuredText, would be within preservation-of-format sections, i.e. [here]? (between double backquotes) or:
[here] (in a literal paragraph)

While fixing this one, you may also consider cleaning up other rest bracket issues: #512 reStructuredText bracket and freeformlink collisions

what works, what doesn't --betabug, Fri, 23 Mar 2007 09:06:30 +0000 reply
what works, what doesn't:
- escaping the line or the brackets with '!' works
- literal paragraph works
- double backquotes do not work
(where "works" means: escapes the "freeform" link)
