 so, either only for enwiki or for all wikis mos: doesn't become an interwiki. 
I've written a patch for this locally, and it's similar to what we already do 
for Swedish ("s:" isn't an interwiki on Swedish Wikipedia because they 
abbreviate "saint" as s:t), but that caused problems like T177913 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T177913> and probably others.

with the `[[old:syntax]]`, it's just that it happens out of sight.
  
  If "mos:" only doesn't work at enwiki, then "m:mos:" would still work there, 
correct? (Currently, for example, both links to "[[m:ms:]]" and searches for 
"m:ms:" [in the search bar at the top of every page] work to get you to the 
Malay Wikipedia. But that search doesn't work on the Special:Search page.) 
OTOH, this wouldn't work if the prefix is disabled everywhere.
  
  Of course, adding local magical interwiki links of the kind provided remotely 
by Wikidata would not be possible, but would the ones provided by Wikidata 
still work?
