$wgExtNewFields<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgExtNewIndexes> is
really handy for adding columns to database tables. Is there an equivalent
configuration setting for *dropping* columns from tables? (Likewise for
dropping indexes.)
Probably, check out the DatabaseUpdater class and its subclasses.
Which, by the way, everyone should be using. Those $wgExtNew*
variables should've been deprecated ages ago with new-installer.
