Thread:User talk:Skizzerz/MW NO SETUP/reply

Yes, it seems to be no longer required. This commit by Chad (and the subsequent followup commits) fixed the use case I was using it for. In the past, it was used since it was the only way to prevent the setup calls in doMaintenance.php from being run (which included checks like "is this being run from command line? If not the die off" -- which obviously doesn't work well for an extension meant to run them from the web).
