It's also worth mentioning that WMF is early in the process of adopting vue. Hopefully we do this in a sane way, porting the good things from OOJS-UI into a centralized design system with a comprehensive component library. I mention it because you may want to keep an eye on that progress and see how your plans here might line up. I think this is the place to look: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Vue.js/Migration_Project_Charter

I'll also add that you're awesome and the list of fixes you mention looks amazing :)

Just a quick note to say that out of the 11 items you list above, 8
would also improve the Wikimedia experience :)
