Just as we have "Hide bots" for Recent changes, I think it
is needed for the Watchlist. In fact I think all the
show/hide options should be the same for both.

My watchlist is unusable because bots are flooding it with edits to year articles.
The watchlist is meant explicitly to display everything you're watching; just
because a bot made the change doesn't mean it should be hidden here.

The option should be provided to the user to show/hide bots. This has been used
on da.wp for the past 8 months, according to Wegge.

If default setting for the watchlists would be "Show bots" then backward
compatibility is assured.
I don't see any use for this. The watchlist is there to show you which of
your pages have changed recently, which it does.

So "Recent pages" is *not* there there to show you which of all pages have changed
recently??
Why do you see a use for it with Recent pages but not with the watchlist?
Are features added because users request them or only they match one developer's
narrow interpretation of the parent feature?
