Hey, cool! I've been crawling through MediaWiki:Thisandthat to get at 
these messages!

On a related note, is there a simple way to sort Special:Specialpages? 
I tried putting "sort($wgExtensionFunctions)" in LocalSettings.php, but 
that didn't seem to have any affect.

Of course, since it's a wiki, anyone who writes up a "bona fide 
procedure" is welcome to make it available to all... :-)
