Agreed. From what I can tell, easyreader is just a bit of styling. It
reminds me of the Typography refresh/update beta feature, so making this
another beta feature or part of the same beta feature might work.

easyreader could also easily be a JavaScript gadget or even a new
MediaWiki skin, if you wanted. There are lots of options here, but none
are particularly difficult from a technical point-of-view.

Changing the implicit ?action=view is nice, but it may also help to focus
on ?action=edit as well. <https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/45300> discusses
adding a "zen mode" to the wikitext ("source") editor. A similar mode
could be added for reading (cf. <https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/14501>).

These are fun projects and none would be very difficult to implement, if
anyone is interested.
