Thread:Manual talk:Skin autodiscovery/Backport of MonoBook and Vector to 1.23/reply (4)

The "problem" with 1.23 is that it is an LTS release supported until 2017 and it will probably be a horror for regular MediaWiki users to migrate e.g. MonoBook derived custom skins not to use autodetection for this release. I guess it would have be done for MonoBook right away if it was easy.
