I agree that this would be extremely nice to have in the code base. I went to some trouble to make such changes, then made the mistake of upgrading MediaWiki, and it blew all my changes away. Now I use an extension table (mw_user_private) and that way updates don't clobber my schema additions. ---------------- :::: As energy supplies shrink, failing to develop different values could lead to a level of violence far greater than any that the country has known before, including first use of nuclear bombs. -- Pat Murphy :::: Jan Steinman, EcoReality Co-op :::: _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
