It should be noted that the above-linked discussion did *not* conclude that we want to enable this extension, for the simple reason that the discussion did not even touch on that question. Rather, it started from the (mistaken) premise that the extension was about to be enabled whether we wanted it or not.

(I'm not saying that we *don't* want it; I'm just saying that the only way to find out is to ask, and no one seems to have tried that yet!)

Given this, I think this bug is invalid.

I agree, marking as such. Also, this is eventually going to be going out to all wikis, so I'm not really sure that specific wiki requests are really needed at all.

Where should one ask to install an extension then???

Bugzilla is the right place, but at some point Scribunto would be deployed to all wikis anyway. I don't see much sense in asking for specific deployment on one wiki.
