In T344276, we want to make sure the SpecialPage::requireLogin() function is used in accordance with the introduction of temporary users. As for now, we want to treat temporary users just like anonymous or IP users.
Request:

If yes, no update is needed.
If not, requireNamedUser must return true instead.
Notes:
RequireLogin was found in the following files:
includes/specials/SpecialMobileEditWatchlist.php
