I've heard both kinds of feedback, but most of it positive. (And I
can't think of a single change which was commented on, and only
commened on positively.)

I dunno, I'd say it's pretty compact – smaller font, offset to the side…

I don't remember any. Hardly any changes ever get design input even
when it's asked for.

I don't remember ever seeing such a thing, and I joined in 2009. This
might not be a bad idea, when somebody joins a wiki their watchlist
will at the beginning be rather short, so they should see this.

Yeah, this was noted in comment 0.
