1. Having a nice editor for mw:Sidebar would be nice. But nothing in the
present format prevents this, it just does not happen due to resource
limitation. If it were not in Mediawiki: it would not be editable at all.

2. I don't think logging is a solution, it has not comparison function and is
generally rather intransparent. One of the reasons is that user contributions
and user logs must be checked separately, rather than being available in a
single list. Interestingly, in recent changes they are unified...

3. Wiki admins have neither fileserver nor database access in the installations
I know. Since developers have these, they usually believe everyone else has as
well. I don't think files are good solution for interwiki.

(4. Yes, the interwiki table is broken, among other things because it manages
interlanguage and interwiki in a single table, which prevents sharing the
interwiki links by using a shared table. But, perhaps it might be more
difficult to update because it is is a non-wiki, classical database design of a
dedicated table that is directly edited by third-party tools. If interwiki were
harvested and opaque, the update may be more easy. But maybe not...)
