Hi,
It could mean that, but of course it is actually introduced to prevent the German community from deactivating the Media Viewer.
User JEissfeldt, removed `mw.config.set("wgMediaViewerOnClick", false);` from Common.js [0] and is the same person who sets `<protect-level-superprotect>`.
I have no idea what the German community wants or doesn't want but using `protect-level-superprotect` to block potential edits is rather questionable.

I hope it's not an other step from WMF to prevent the application of community decisions when they not agree with it. I fear that they will use this to bypass community decisions. For example like forcing again VE on everyone on enwki: last year, sysop were able to apply community decision against Erik wishes only because they had access to site wide js or CSS.
I'd like to believe that code-reviewing would mean improving code quality, security and performance (applies to javascript).

I remember when we used to beg for the WMF to deploy extensions. Now we really need to beg for the WMF to not deploy extensions ...
