Sorry to reopen this thread but I think I remembered something last 
night related to this.

Do any of the wikis we're looking at using to replace moin support regex 
page watches (or something that could be used similarly... perhaps a 
category watch?)  I remember someone (Mike?) looking at other wikis with 
an eye towards porting code from another wiki to speed up the 
notifications and finding that no other wiki supports regex watchlists. 
  Just wondering if we're going to need to change our behaviour WRT page 
watchlists if we can't fix moin.
