Did the announcement that the page would be disabled escape my notice? What is going to be disabled next? Wikipedia?
What the hell! My Watchlist has been the main thing between me and wiki-insanity ever since it became impractical (and later /impossible/) to review an entire day's edits. As far as I'm concerned disabling editing altogether would almost be a better option if it weren't for the "Related Changes" feature (at least I can tract changes to pages I have listed on my user page).
Hey waitaminute - why not place the watchpage list on a regular wiki page so that Related Changes can do it's magic on it? As a matter of fact why can't that /replace/ the slow watchlist code completely? IIRC, the "Related Changes" and "Recent Changes" code is the same.
