Isn't that essentially a binary rating system, where the only two ratings are "Necessary" and "Optional", depending on their presence in /modules versus /extensions? It's a good idea -- make no mistake -- but let's be deliberate about having only two ratings. ________________________________________
Why don't we have a modules system, where extensions are simply integrated as is into core? Basically, extensions that are found to be essential for MediaWiki could be moved from /extensions to /modules, only needing to change small portions of code to fix references to the directory.
