On a lot of wikis I would benefit from receiving the contents of each new fresh category member to my inbox. Was this considered before?

Example use-case below: these pages all belong to a category. (Another use case is patrolling new pages in a category.)

(There may be a need to allow people edit by email, outside of web browser, but that's a bit complicated and I can't think of /how/ to do it, yet.)

There needs to be a central place, like the Wikimedia blog, but dedicated to tech things - actively announcing everything WM ENGINEERING are doing, both in products and in core.

There is. It's called the monthly report. See here for July's for example: *https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Engineering/Report/2014/July https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Engineering/Report/2014/July*
