Thanks for this. I wasn't aware of this but this is good. I just saw
the patch raised against MobileFrontend and wasn't sure if you guys
were aware of it. This wasn't meant as an attack of any sorts I just
wanted to explore if there were ways we could improve our workflow to
prevent huge breakages like this - my worry is had this change been
merged on a Wednesday we would have had to do a lightning deploy or
had VE broken on all wikis for a week which would have sucked.
