Not precisely this, but related... Is there any plan to have "folders" in a
watchlist, and then the ability to make a specific folder visible (a.k.a.
"shared") to others?

Not only would this make it easier for people with very large watchlists to
manage their work more easily, but this would also mean that a group (e.g.
wikiproject, edithathon participants, classroom...) could easily subscribe
to a shared watchlist folder. This would make it easy for them to follow
each other's edits.
- A teacher or wiki-mentor could make a shared watchlist of their student's
draft pages.
- An editathon organiser could create a shared watchlist of all the
articles within the scope of the event.
- A wikiproject could create several shared watchlists to group related
articles for members to more easily monitor.
- probably many other use-cases that might emerge...

Has this been discussed/suggested before?
