Hi,
Jeroen's suggestions are very interesting to me. There is one thing I don't
understand: Why is it a bad idea to provide a hook handler with as much context
information as possible? Isn't is better to have context injected to the hook handler
than to have the hook handler look for the context in some other way? Maybe even by
accessing global state?

Betreff: Re: [Wikitech-l] Watchlist and RC refactor, and why you will like it
I'd agree with the general statement on inheritance (which can have weird coupling and
diamonds of doom) and hooks (which can lead to hard-to-specify behavior and tangle).
I'm not familiar with the main problem with SpecialPage having been articulated
though.
