My comments aren't intended to add something. All I'm trying to do is to find
honest words for what's already there.

Let me put it that way: If you are being criticized for adding non-requested
features why are you adding an other non-requested feature that can be
criticized for the exact same reasons? It's not that we don't have a Gadget
infrastructure. Why does WMF build a separate one that can't be controlled by
the communities and calls it "Beta" instead of what it really is?

After looking at the actual implementation of the "Typography Update" I hope
you are right. This is not even "Beta". I'm afraid deploying such "half-baked
ideas" will make things worse, no matter how you call it.
