Had a quick chat with jared Zimmerman (cced) around
this (who's not on
this mailing list)
He says:
"HotCat is number one on my list of gadgets to get some UX love and
turn into a beta experiment... If everything goes well while its in
experiments then it gets integrated into core extensions. Mark H. is
coding the desktop beta experiments framework right now (literally
while I write this email)"

Quick question, is there a way in the API (other
than action=edit) to
add/remove categories from a page? Because that seems to be one of the main
things that would be holding this back from becoming an extension proper.
There isn't currently (we hit this in the mobile commons app).
Currently we have to get the wikitext, parse out the categories (eek
wikitext), and then add/replace/edit them. Regexes all over. Not fun.
But fixing that would take a lot more work, I think.
