Hello, This email is to inform you of a small backwards-incompatible change to LinksUpdate class in MediaWiki core. LinksUpdate::getTriggeringUser method will start returning an instance of UserIdentity instead of a User object as of [1]. All 2 known usages of this method are satisfied with UserIdentity interface, and going through a full deprecation process here would require renaming the method and will just cause more pain to extension developers.
