What "updater"? Is this about a MediaWiki software upgrade?

Yes. This is about maintenance/update.php

This should be easy to do. As long as the population script is a maintenance script that subclasses LoggedUpdateMaintenance, and then we'd just add it to DatabaseUpdater::$postDatabaseUpdateMaintenance.
