--- Comment #1 from Jon <[email protected]> ---
I don't see what this gives us apart from more code fragmentation. Is this
really a performance hit to the server?

Remember we dynamically load pages on beta and when this happens we will need
to do an ajax call anyway to get watchlist status. This would mean we would
need to special case against the first page load to do something different. I
worry this will lead to clumsy javascript code.

It's worth noting that currently we don't show the watchlist star to users with
older phones that we don't serve javascript to. It might be worth rendering the
star in the html and making it a simple form post so that these users can still
watch pages. This might be a good motivation to doing things this way.

Also surely we should be getting to a state where we __can__ cache logged in
users page - we should be working towards that and I feel like this works
against that direction... no?

Thoughts?
