stjn edited projects for T272297: User script on user subpage doesn't work after user rename, added: Security-Team; removed SecTeam-Processed.
This continuously causes issues with user scripts after any rename, I am asking someone from Security-Team to take time to review the patch provided.

[mediawiki/core@master] Allow loading JS/CSS pages orphaned due to user renames
Jack_who_built_the_house added a comment to T272297: User script on user subpage doesn't work after user rename.
So, if a Toolforge account maintaining a script is adopted, the script is moved, BAM – all script users no longer can load it, until an interface-admin runs a bot task to replace the user name in the scripts loading it. (This is what just happened in ruwiki.)

Change 962100 merged by jenkins-bot:
[mediawiki/extensions/CentralAuth@master] SpecialGlobalRenameQueue: Swap 'mw-ui-button-group' nav to tabs/breadcrumbs
Tgr added a comment to T306757: Global renames are slow.
Grafana gives 0s for renameUser, not sure what's going on there.
Tgr added a comment to T272297: User script on user subpage doesn't work after user rename.
We could probably allow loading orphaned javascript pages as long as they are redirects, those are already protected against editing.
Tgr added a comment to T72379: GlobalRename: optionally create a dummy account at the old name after the rename.
Is this still relevant after rECAU867b0d779456: Make antispoof reject previously existing users.?
