MediaWiki should not go to the main tab after saving preferences
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Currently, if a user wants to play with the available preferences in a section other than the first (e.g. to enable/disable some gadgtets), he gets redirected to
[[Special:Preferences&success]]
where the following message is displayed

  • Your preferences have been saved. ***

Instead of this, MediaWiki should keep the "#preftab-8" part of the URL as in:
[[Special:Preferences&success#preftab-8]]
so that the user doesn't need to change to the tab he was before saving the changes.

(this is a little annoying if e.g. we are trying to find which of the N gadgets available is the cause of a bug, and we need to click in the "Gadgets" tab every time we save our preferences)
