And I can say that even if I watch hundreds of pages in many projects, I only
really miss this feature with beasts like Village Pump.

Maybe the problem, to start with, lies in how we create and update places like
Village Pump or Reference Desk? A majority of those readers are interested only
in certain chunks of those pages. The case is pretty similar to Discussion
pages, although the average traffic there is pretty lower and therefore
manageable.

What is more likely to be implemented before: the redesign of the architecture
of a MediaWiki page or special way to handle pages for discussion, allowing
users the possibility to subscribe to certain posts/threads?
