Well, LiquidThreads has been around for several years and is deployed to a
number of sites, including Wikimedia wikis. If support for LQTv1 is being
completely dropped, it'd be nice if that were made explicit somewhere. I
haven't seen anything to suggest that it is (and doing so obviously has
consequences both for Wikimedia wikis and non-Wikimedia wikis).

In this case, someone has filed a bug about fatal errors popping up when they
install an extension using a fairly recent version of MediaWiki. I doubt this
user cares about a LiquidThreads rewrite, but I imagine they do care about
having a properly working site. They've taken the time to file a bug report;
it'd be nice if it weren't simply discarded.
