Implementing watchlists in Javascript? I have implemented a watchlist in javascript [1], but the problem is that javascript does not allow cross website scripting. So there is no way I can fetch the data from an other hostname.

I think it would make more sense to ask the user explicitly, "How would you like to be informed if your files are nominated for deletion?" x Never inform me x Inform me at my Commons talk page (default) x Inform my at my talk page at another wiki, which is User:_ at project _ (fill in the blanks) x Inform me via email; I have verified my email in my Commons account.
Sounds great.
that would be pretty cool actually.
Anyway, unfortunately I have to agree with Platonides et al that we should wait and see exactly what SUL brings. How the watchlist(s) will work has not been made terribly clear, at least in anything I've seen.
Why not inplementing a javascript and/or template solution before waiting for another few years?
