This is a key feature of the watchlist and I didn't want to break it without recourse. We could add them to the wacthlist table along with the main pages when a user adds a page; but if the talk page is created later, we'd have to go update everyone's watchlists on page creation. (Hmm, could work.) Using namespace and title instead of cur_id would make it more straightforward, but wouldn't give the advantage of automatically preserving a page in the list after a page move. (Though, we could easily issue an update on page move that way.) Somewhat, particularly for the small but promiscuous few who have very very long watchlists. -- brion vibber (brion @ pobox.com)
