           Summary: Special:PrefixIndex goes ahead and finds a mess
                    without first being asked
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.17-svn
          Platform: All
               URL: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:PrefixIndex
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Special pages
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: jida...@jidanni.org


Why does [[Special:PrefixIndex]] go ahead and find things before it has been
told what to find?

E.g., click on the above URL. You see it has "wastefully" found "everything
starting with what it thinks is a null pattern" or something.

Why can't it wait until someone has filled out the box instead of forging ahead
and finding junk nobody is interested in "for free" without being asked?
