Hi,

Well, it depends on what you mean by "broken". From my perspective, as long
as the code doesn't crash SMW's regular functionality, it's good enough. If
there's a problem with the Site Settings functionality in SMW - even a
severe problem - you could just redirect it as a Site Settings issue, which
is really what it is.

The same thing holds true for Page Schemas, by the way - the code in SMW
that hooks into it is somewhat complex, but as far as I know it hasn't
required any special maintenance effort on the part of SMW devs.
