Having a small extension that serves a specific purpose isn't a problem IMO. If your wiki uses a shared user table, or any other non-CA global authentication configuration (LDAP possibly), then it's entirely re-usable. I'm not aware of what in core that offers this feature, nor any other extensions (excluding Skizzerz's extension mentioned above). > I think we should either reject this feature, or add it to CentralAuth. Rejecting this feature isn't an option ;) > Also note that, like user and site css/js in core (wgAllowUserJs etc.), this > is > also behind a configuration flag.

If split out to another extension, there is no need for a feature flag, you either enable the extension or you don't. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
