bzimport set Reference to bz54557.

We shouldn't use screen scrapping as page generator since we have api access.

[[gerrit:118938]] for implementation in the core branch.

...but it needs a backport for compat too.

No need to develop compat, It's depreciated, just fixing big issues.

Xqt subscribed.

Reopened because there is not pagegenerators Option to use it. Either a new Option -wantedpages should be implemented or the pagegenerators method should be deprecated and the site method should be used instead.
