I wrote up some quick thoughts at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Brion_VIBBER/MCR_alternative_thoughts
Mainly exploring along two lines:
- what if we did a model with separate data tables for each new 'slot' instead of a common content-blob interface (possibly more line with Jaime's thoughts?, possibly different)
- what if we went full in on using subpages, what would it take to support that?
The first would be in some ways similar to the MCR model, but with stricter typing, possible benefits in storage and schema consistency, etc but without the conveniences of the common interface for Content blobs. The second might be a much easier transition, but needs better high-level tooling and some new versioning concepts.
May be worth fleshing these out or combining some ideas just to brainstorm a bit.
