Setup
Issue
When setting $wgCommentStreamsAllowedNamespaces = -1;, nothing happens if you add <comment-streams /> to a page. The expected behaviour is that you can start commenting on that page.

For me, I get no CommentStreams functionality... even without the configuration that is the subject of this issue. I originally did have $wgCommentStreamsAllowedNamespaces = -1;, but when I remove that configuration, I still get nothing. (using the REL1_43 branch)
The only way I get CommentStreams functionality is with this patch that returns the title instead of null; or switching to the master branch.

This patch worked for me as well.
