Nah, there are plenty of ways to harass the system

team. When you have so few actual employees, though, your mileage may
be limited. In any case, the clear answer to this is just to allow
configuration of namespaces and (some routine) permissions from within
the wiki interface and allow bureaucrats to do it through the actual
interface of the site, like on every other Web package in the
universe. Then we wouldn't have to bother the system administrators
about every damn thing. Of course, that's something anyone with
commit access can fix, so I'm not going to be too critical about this
whole thing. :P
Certain configuration changes will require maintenance scripts and the
like to be run, e.g. messing about with namespaces...it might not be
the best idea in the world to expose this via the web interface.
