This sounds like an issue. If others agree, I could work on this.

Right now the MediaWiki namespace is protected from
editing. However, if
you add a template to a Mediawiki message and the template is unprotected,
any user could edit the message by editing the template, creating a
backdoor. There is no option to cascade protect MediaWiki messages on wiki,
and there is no function in the MediaWiki software to cascade protect an
entire namespace. Should this be fixed?
