Please provide a usecase because I cannot guess why "it would be good". Thanks!

User scripts or gadget could need this information to know if a user can or cannot edit a page depending on its namespace.

I think to LiveRC gadget, for example ([[fr:Wikipédia:LiveRC/Sources]]).

It is as probably as reavelant as "case" or "subpages" attributes already provided with "meta=siteinfo&siprop=namespaces"
