Adding Trevor. Sounds like a perfect opportunity to use OOUI and show how this will play with MediaWiki UI....

I doubt there's a short (or even mid-) term solution using OOUI. It has a whole class name system of its own, and (IIRC) the build process currently can't use our mixins.

Hopefully we can make this part of MW UI (checkboxes) the normal behavior (with no temporary globals) in a shorter time than the estimated horizon for https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/Redo_skin_framework .

We decided to stop using MW UI in core (T100161), so OOjs UI will be the direction here too.
