Enable native lazy-loading on Special:NewFiles
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Nobody in their right mind would print that page, which means that the weakness of the browser print feature not accounting for native lazy loading can be ignored in this context.

This would mitigate issues with concurrent requests for fresh thumbnails being sent to Thumbor, particularly for users who have set the number of thumbnails on that page to a high amount (eg. 500).

Works as expected on Beta Commons. I don't expect any surprises when this goes to production.
