Description Milos Rancic 2008-09-13 11:26:15 UTC 
I would really like to see installation of extensions at the API level, not at the system level.
Comment 1 Roan Kattouw 2008-09-13 11:30:57 UTC 
There is an extension that allows for installing extensions through the UI at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Configure#Special:Extensions ; having an API module is the Configure extension's responsibility.
Comment 2 Alexandre Emsenhuber [IAlex] 2008-10-12 10:41:50 UTC 
Added a read-only API module in r41988. A module able to change the configuration will be difficult to write though.

If the Configure extension has a sensible design, anything that can be changed through the web interface should be changeable through the API as well.
