I don't know why Upload Wizard decided to store these options in its own extension repository directory in the first place. Was it a lack of consideration or time, laziness or intentionally?
Hi, I'm the person who made that decision.
It was a combination "this is the simplest thing to do" and "I think we're changing how Licenses work soon anyway, so this will work for now".
I thought about changing it to be more wiki-editable many times, but I never got around to it. When it was only deployed on one site it wasn't as big of a deal. Now that UW is deployed everywhere (not just Commons) it's probably overdue to make it fully wiki-configurable.
To clarify, Upload Wizard is only enabled on commons (and some third party wikis).
