There are some (maybe many) special pages that can't returm raw information (compare Special:Randompage with Special:RandomInCategory for example). Maybe it's better to think how to make all them same, in place of creation a raw version one by one. Igal

I see the usecase and I thing issue and bug reports could very much benefit from that. Wouldn't this be something for MediaWiki core to provide via a special page or some action raw to special Version that just emits the raw data in a copy paste way except for the descriptions?

Ok.. forgive me for being slow in understanding this. This API interface is new to me. Are you saying I can't get*just* a list of extension names and corresponding versions from the API? If so, is it easy to show me how? (sorry to have to ask)
No, you can only get the entire JSON structure.
If the goal is to "to have a nice simple way to attach that info to a support thread", then you can probably just copypaste the entire thing? Otherwise, you'll have to extract extensions' names from it.
