ChangePass and UserLogin make perfect sense to disable gadgets on. UserRights
does not. Lemme splain:

If you have compromised someone's javascript, you can simply send an ajax
request to Special:UserRights, scrape the form, get the token, and submit it it
back. Same for most other Special pages.

You can't do this for ChangePass, because it requires them to enter their
password. Same for UserLogin.

Site JS should be trusted enough to load on all pages (except maybe UserLogin).

Suggest WONTFIX for UserRights (some people automate the process, especially on
Meta) and Site JS suggestions, and dupe to bug 18186 for the Gadgets (both CSS
and JS, CSS can execute javascript in some browsers!) disabling on
ChangePass/etc.
