Hello!
Recently I've worked on some MediaWiki setups with enabled "img_auth.php". During that work I've noticed a few things that I think can be improved, to make an extension developer's life easier. I know that this feature is mostly used by private/intranet wikis, so there are only limited resources for future development available at the WMF. Therefore I'd like to volunteer to work on "img_auth.php". Is this something the Wikimedia dev community is interested in? Can I count on some support by the original maintainers of "img_auth.php"? I'd be happy about any feedback.
Oh, and I've already created a Phabricator task: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T153174

img_auth.php is used in some private Wikimedia wikis, so you might be able to get WMF people to review your changes. It also means that they will be scrutinized more closely before they're merged.
