Event Timeline

IP addresses of anonymous editors should be shown.

Well, not necessarily. It is possible to suppress IP addresses like you can usernames

Special:RecentChanges and Special:Watchlist shows IP addresses, but action=history does not.

Looks like a .13 train blocker

I see no suppressions in the logs that could cause this issue. A bug indeed unless I'm missing something.
