The creator of the extension have stopped to contribute in 2011 and the
extension have been without maintainer between 2011 and July 2012 when I get a
commit access to it. But I haven't a lot of free time and:
1) I do it for fun so, I make things when I want to make it, not really when
users want.
2) Programming is just an hobby and I'm not very comfortable with some advanced
standards.

The extension have been reviewed at its deployment on Wikisource in 2007 and,
because nobody pay attention to this extension beyond its "maintainer" (ThomasV
and, since 2012, me), and, when there is a critical bug, Sam Reed, Aaron Schulz
or Brion Vibber, changes since 2007 haven't been really reviewed.

I agree that the issue is more in ProofreadPage than in the MW toolbar.
I have begun to refactor some part of the back-end of the extension in order to
implement the edit form of page pages in PHP in a more cleanly way than the one
used by the very hacky current implementation in JavaScript. I have already
done something like that for index pages (gerrit
Idc00bddac8abc58e0b6414bdd9dc3f32cab3337a ). So I have let this bug wait for
this rewriting that will solve, I hope, this issue.



I want also to say that, even if billinghurst reaction is maybe a little out of
proportion a lot of Wikisource contributors feel that the Wikimedia Fondation
staff doesn't care about Wikisource. Things like bug 34788 doens't help to make
this fact change.
