    If we wanted to make it sitewide, someone would just have to add
    that line to: http://openwetware.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Monobook.js
    
    But as no one appears to have even tried it out or uses it other
    than me (as far as I know), it clearly hasn't been a highly
    desired feature. As it changes the UI on every single page, it
    would require some consensus that people wanted it.
