This appears to have been a caching issue. I'm able to use the aftv5_link parameter with debug=true to select link options.

The "bucket" parameter is a holdover from the early days of AFTv5, when the only thing being bucketed was form display options -- the form options are named "bucket" throughout the code. While that's not ideal, the risk involved with a manual change on this sort of scale is quite high, and the benefit is very small.

An alternative would be for me to rename only the url parameter, or to remove it entirely.

See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Article_feedback/Version_5/Technical_Design#Debug_state_and_query_string_options for how the url parameters are meant to work.

Note also that when using the url parameters, you have access to all of the form options that are in the javascript, regardless of what is being shown to normal users.

Given that Option 1 has been chosen moving forward, I think it's probably time to remove all of the other options from the javascript -- it will shrink the file significantly, which is always good for load time.
