I don't want the bots hidden - i want them to stop doing it and to move to
centralized interwiki management. In fact, in the current state of affairs, i
very much do want to see what the bots are doing, because sometimes they are
not doing the right thing.

But this comment does bring up a different problem - if this extension is
enabled and the links are edited in a different wiki, i don't see changes of
links in my watchlist. It is a disadvantage, although i am ready to live with
it, because this extension has enough advantages.

I'll write about this problem in the discussion page in meta.
