Ugh... really ugly

oh: popping to highest (until I hear otherwise) since it may be a symptom of other problems. That, and its like an ugly wart.

Since the previous link was broken, here is a new one:
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/mediawiki/wiki/Thread:Talk:Article_feedback/Unexpected_behaviour:_rating_appears_when_attaching_%22%3Faction%3Dpurge%22/reply

(I hope it works / where is the preview button on bugzilla? )

Adding this to my todo list for today.

Lowering priority a bit as purge action is very rare for anonymous users (especially considering they can't enable gadgets and there is no link to the purge-action anywhere by default for anonymous users (as well as for registered users)).

Fixed in r93813.
