I think that's not the right attitude. Techinal people should
implement whatever may be useful, even when there are downsides,

This consensus may be different for different Wikipedias, and almost for sure
it will be different for Wiktionary (where there are standard anchor targets
"X Language" and multipart articles). That way every wiki has what it wants.
Mixing policy issues with technical issues enforces views of majority on
everyone else, even if different projects have drastically different needs.
Unfortunalty, everytime someone say something like: have a different
default skin, someother say's: not without consens over all wikipedias. Can
you imagine thier reactions on your proposal?
There seems to be no way of 'every wiki get's what it wants' -- theres only
one solution possible for all wikipedias - unfortunatly.
