P.S. At the url the first tag is a red "Media page". It should be a blue "Image"

issue 1:
The title shows
"Editing Media:Northern Spotted Owl.USFWS-thumb.jpg"
This should be
"Editing Image:Northern Spotted Owl.USFWS-thumb.jpg"

The title is correct insofar as it goes; the page being edited is called
"Media:Foo" and so it's shown up as expected. The bug is not in the title
handling here, but the fact that /blah/index.php?title=Media:Foo.png&action=edit
(for instance) produces an edit form at all. Either it should state that "this
is a special namespace, blah blah" or it should take the user to edit the
corresponding image page (if it exists) or else take them to upload the file.

issue 2:
[[Image:Northern Spotted Owl.USFWS-thumb.jpg]] was on my watchlist but
at the link from the url the "Watch" tag was *still* shown.

Like I said above; the page in question is called "Media:Foo" so it's not being
watched.

Agreed!

This particular issue (with the edit page/alt actions) seems to be resolved; the canonical image/file namespace is shown throughout the page.

Page view needs a slight adjustment to redirect to the canonical URL, which I'm splittout out as bug 16677.
