--- Comment #1 from Brad Jorsch <[email protected]> ---
It's not that confusing, depending on how you think about it. You're specifying
the set of protections that are to apply to the page, not just the set of
protections you're wanting to modify.

But the big question is how would you do this in a backwards-compatible manner?
We can't suddenly change the current behavior for clients that are *expecting*
"protections=edit=sysop" to remove the move protection. Perhaps a boolean
"modify", or something like that, to select the new behavior.
