Echo already has this abstraction layer. The backend is exposed using the global $wgEchoBackend, which is an instance of MWEchoBackend.

I don't know what kind of information you want to extract, it would be better if you filed the bug yourself. This is the first case where another extensions is accessing the information Echo stores which is why there is no real internal API yet. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
