Well, the issue is they don't work because they're broken, and they're broken because they don't work! For clarity, https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Legoktm/T90978 does not redirect because the target (https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Legoktm) does not exist in traditional sense (page id == 0). Only #GlobalUserPage <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/globaluserpage/> knows that https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Legoktm magically exists. To make the redirect actually works, the extension has to let core know that the page exists, and it needs the hook in the above patch to do so. Once the redirect works, it will also disappear from Special:BrokenRedirect > It would be nice if we could get redirects to just work... That'd be done in #GlobalUserPage <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/globaluserpage/> in a separate patch. But that requires the above core change first.
