there is not an available category for requests for work on core software extensionsseem to undermine the wishlist system, and frankly it doesn't make any sense.

wondering why The Signpost reports on it. This sort of thing is exactly what you should do. The factual inaccuracies aside, the tone could be much better, but this is merely my opinion. I assume there won't be another Signpost in time to advertise voting on the proposal, but you should feel free to advertise in any way you can. I sincerely hope it pans out. If I were able to vote on it, I would :) — MusikAnimal talk 20:29, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
