You misunderstand, I'm not talking about the bug title (which excellently describes the proposed change) but the change itself. Changing the permission to *anything* other than what it currently is is a breaking change that will require sysadmins to update their configurations, or cause friction between them and their users if they forget to do so. As such, it should only be done if there is a pressing need for it. Given that the permission key name is only ever exposed accompanied by either documentation or an explanation of what it does, I don't think such a pressure exists. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
