People complaining rollback is a bad thing can at least wait until something bad actually happens. There was consensus for this change, in my view. Turning it off after all this would create even more drama.
I never said it's a bad thing. I just don't think we need a process to get it. Everybody should get it at the autoconfirm level, and if they abuse it we just block their account. As I have said before, if we cannot trust someone with "rollback" we cannot trust them with "edit this page."
We do *not* need a new permissions bit, we do *not* need another process, and we do *not* need another clique of users. Just let people use it.
And that is why I voted oppose. Not because I think it is a bad idea, but because I didn't like the way it was proposed.
