I'm fine with reverting this out of the login UI. I imagine it's only going to cause more confusion than anything for innocent users who don't really know what they're clicking. "Log me in globally? I just want to login to Wikipedia!" I can see the usefulness in skipping the global login for debugging or for some other freaky edge case a power user might come up with. How about as a compromise, we make the feature available through a query parameter or the API? If nobody has a really solid use case though, I'm fine with outright removal too. -Chad _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
