Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

This is a spike to determine whether the editing preference that is set while editing as an IP should be inherited by a new account

Behavior

Current
If you've previously edited while not logged in (or while logged in as another user), and changed your editor to wikitext mode, then your editor preference will be carried over when you create a new account. via @matmarex in T279029#6966344.

Current behavior was originally implemented in T133304.
Revised
When you create a new account, no editing interface preferences will be "inherited" from previous IP editing sessions.
