--- Comment #2 from Jon <[email protected]> ---
"Instead, they *broke* it several times because they implemented their own
minimal implementation that conflicted with enwiki's version."

This is not quite true nor fair... yes it was minimal but we copied the rule
that was being used by hlist as the hlist class is in MediaWiki:Common.css as
this useful rule is not deployed to all wikis.

The problem arose when we discovered that hlist also does more than create a
horizontal list - it also defines separators that don't apply well in certain
contexts. I think we've improved this situation somewhat by adding scoping to
the existing rules.

But putting hlist in core would stop these future breakages which is only a
good thing.

I just noticed LiquidThreads also uses horizontal lists and would benefit from
usage of this class.
