That page is precisely the kind of information I'm looking for, thanks!
Per the instructions there, I'll talk with Howie Fung about the extension.
And I'll update here with further questions or significant notes as they
come along.

Hi all,
I'm in the process of developing a media handling extension for MediaWiki
that will allow users with WebGL-enabled browsers to manipulate 3D models
of large biological molecules, like proteins and DNA. I'm new to
MediaWiki
development, and I've got some questions
about how I should go forward
with
development of this extension if I want to
ultimately get it into
official
Wikimedia MediaWiki deployments.
Eric, thank you for this contribution, and, like, wow, cool! Let me
point you to
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Writing_an_extension_for_deployment ,
which answers several of your questions, I think.
Please keep sharing your progress here.
