To avoid disrupting activity when something needs a long catch-up, we currently have to remove it entirely from db.php -- this is pretty crappy because it then stops showing up in our regular lag tracking, so it's harder to see it when it catches up. It would be nice to be able to have it in the system so it can be tracked, but still not actively used.
Five years later: Is this still relevant? Which file is that about (if still in MediaWiki code base at all)? core/includes/specials/SpecialLockdb.php and SpecialUnlockdb.php? Or operations/mediawiki-config/docroot/noc/db.php ?
