My recollection is - and please correct me if I'm wrong!! - that there was
some intention that LiquidThreads would become the default for all
discussion pages on Wikimedia sites, but this intention started wearing off
around 2011. It became the discussion page technology for Wikinews in some
languages, for translatewiki, for some pages on mediawiki.org and for some
other minor areas. Were these ever the target of handling for any scripts
or gadgets? Not that I know, but I don't know everything.

Flow seems to be progressing much better than LiquidThreads did, and the
intention to make it default for all Wikimedia sites some day is there. So
scripts and gadgets that currently handle talk pages will have to handle
Flow pages. Will it be a big deal because of the namespace number? Possibly
not, but I figured that I'll mention this.
