Well I think we agreed before somewhere that we should not use Composer for installation of MW extensions, and that MW is in dire need of its own extension management code.
I do remember that you said that, but I don't remember that being the consensus. If there is real traction on something that is MW-specific, then I'm all for it, but this is something that works *now* as Antoine has demonstrated.
From the tweet, it sounds like Robla reached out to Nils Adermann. If that is what happened, then I'm very interested to hear more from the WMF side.
Indeed. We've tossed it around for a couple of things but never really looked at it in-depth. I loathe wheel reinvention, so if we can make use of all or parts of other people's work, then I see no reason not to.
