Yesterday a friend of mine discovered and filed a bug that highlights
a backwards incompatibility introduced by 1.18.

The bug is "Moved ArticleSave hook breaks backward compatibility"
(https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/32318).

I found a number of public functions in the Article class that are not
directly supported in WikiPage.

To be clear, I don't know how widely those public functions are used.
They may be inconsequential.  It may be only my friend who is likely to
run into a problem on upgrading.

So my question: is this problem worth holding back a 1.18 release while
we implement any missing functionality?

Mark.
