LQT should intercept "section=new" edits through API as well as skin interface
Open, LowestPublic

Description

To quote Roan:

LQT hijacks section=new via the PerformAction hook, but it doesn't make
any attempt to hijack section=new in the API. Instead, LQT has its own
API for posting things

This leads to tools that use the edit API (such as the Feedback tool) being incompatible with LQT.

I guess LQT extension must be a good citizen and get along with other extensions? Under the exclusivity is there by design, this looks more like a bug (and a major one) rather than an enhancement request.

Setting to "Normal" because I lack the background. Feel free changing to Major if you agree that blocking other extensions deserves that.

LiquidThreads has been replaced by StructuredDiscussions on all Wikimedia production wikis (except one, which will be done soon). It is no longer under active development or maintenance, so I'm re-classifying all open LQT tasks as "Lowest" priority.
