Description:
With MediaWiki 1.5, a third field for page moves was added, the "Reason" field.
Additionally, the destination ("To new title:") field began being pre-filled
when it was not before.
The result is that people are repeatedly putting the destination name into the
Reason field, and then complaining that page moves are buggy because it gave
them a "Source and destination titles are the same" error.
On enwiki, this has resulted in the addition of a note about the possibility in
the error message. However, this is less than ideal. Prefilling the field saves
very little effort (the title is available immediately above for copy/paste),
and causes confusion.
