> `maxlag` affects all API requests, even ones that shouldn’t have any effect on query service lag, such as `action=wbgetentity` or `action=query&meta=userinfo`. Should we try to limit the impact of this change, e. g. by only using query service lag on POST requests? (On the other hand, the same question should apply to dispatch lag and we don’t seem to limit the impact of that as far as I can tell.) (I realized yesterday why this isn’t as big a deal as I thought – API users could decide to only specify `maxlag` on POST requests themselves. Though I suppose we shouldn’t encourage that, because in the case of replication lag you really want all requests to be throttled.)
