Description Nemo 2011-10-22 11:02:32 UTC
Per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/81210#c13635
It's unclear if it's feasible and if it can be done without cluttering the special pages too much or reducing flexibility (compare bug 11612 comment 13).
Could be useful for bug 20151 (allowing only a subset of preferences)?
Comment 1 Umherirrender 2012-05-05 14:49:28 UTC
A api for preferences exist now (bug 18195)
Comment 2 Oliver Keyes 2012-08-25 09:39:16 UTC
Repeated from 38395; we'll be working on this soon :).

Good. Don't forget bug 31882, inconsistency is what causes most confusion and lost opportunities in users.
