[[Special:MyPage]] should preserve the safemode parameter. This would be particularly useful as Special:MyPage/common.css?action=edit&safemode=true , for linking users to if they've accidentally locked themselves out of being able to edit their own CSS or JS. This would allow them to easily remove the accidental CSS/JS bug by themselves, without needing to ask an interface admin or go through the complicated step of turning off their own CSS or JS locally via their browser.

| Add safemode to special redirect parameters that are preserved | mediawiki/core | master | +1 -1 |
Based on fixes to similar bugs, this could presumably be fixed by changing line 227 of mediawiki/includes/specialpage/RedirectSpecialPage.php from
'redlink',
to
'redlink', 'safemode',
...
I can do this, but the edit you suggest would apply to all redirect special pages (Special:MyPage, Special:MyLanguage, etc.). This would probably be a good thing, but I just want to make sure it is okay.
Agree, having all redirect special pages work preserve safemode would be a good thing.
