As far as I can tell, touch.py should not be necessary. Purging (including links updates) should just work in MediaWiki. Individual users shouldn't feel compelled to manually null edit or aggressively purge pages. I'd personally rather see time and energy invested into making the need for null edits obsolete instead of making touch.py more robust.
