r95396 merged the iwtransclusion branch into core, bringing some somewhat duplicate code from the GlobalUsage extension I've asked Peter about this, but it needs tidying up, due to clashing class names, and quite a lot of duplicate/only slightly modified code The classes in question are GlobalUsageQuery in both, and then SpecialGlobalUsage in the extension and GlobalFileUsage in phase3
The plan when I was developing the iwtransclusion branch one year ago was actually to have the GlobalUsage extension built-in. That's why I copied a lot of code from it to the core. IIRC, this code would be shared by both images global usage and templates global usage. The idea was that templates global usage would be built-in anyway so it did not seem more expensive to have images global usage built-in as well...
Was reverted in r98467.
