Can We get some kind of progress started on this? 5 years and waiting.....

This bug needs to be properly described or I'm just going to mark it as invalid. What specific Special pages or functions do you want write access to? Each of those individual actions/Special pages probably need a separate bug.

A vague mega-bug like this ("Write API for CentralAuth extension") is of course not going to get any reaction. There's nothing actionable here.

the big ones are block/unblock/lock/unlock

The current bug summary ("Write API for CentralAuth extension") has an amusing ambiguity: it can be read as <verb> <noun> (i.e., "Write [an] API") or it can be read as <phrasal noun> (i.e., "write API" as a complement to "read API").

Well if they have a valid one they should open a new bug. Resolved fixed. :)
