Thread:Feedback/Watchlist integration

Is there a design decision in LiquidThread for new messages not to be shown in the users watchlist as well?

While I like the idea that there is a page to watch just new messages, I also use my watchlist as a portal to Wikipedia and having to watch and refresh two pages is bothersome. Furthermore, my own talkpage contributions don't show up in either the watchlist or new messages view so if I want to go back to a talkpage I posted on I have to go to the My contributions page... In summary, I need three separate lists to achieve the same level of productivity as was possible with just one page.
