<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgAPIModules>: "Extension
modules cannot override the core modules." Why is that? As far as I
understand extension modules can override special pages, so why not
api modules? It would be particularly useful for extension
LuceneSearch. This extension overrides Special:Search and its (not yet
committed) api module should also override list=search.
Good one. I changed that line only minutes before you read it, as it
used to say overriding *was* possible (which it isn't in the current
implementation). I'll go and change this, although we should probably
stick a big fat warning on this kind of thing: we don't want extensions
to change a core API module's interface too drastically.
Upon closer examination of the code, it appears overriding is already
possible, so go ahead with your Lucene module.
