             Bug #: 39328
           Summary: redirectToFragment should try to avoid creating a
                    double history entry on fragment redirects
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All

          Priority: Unprioritized

For fragment redirects we're currently using window.location.hash to update the
fragment when the user visits the page.

This has the undesired consequence of creating two entries in the history in
Firefox. So hitting the back button once just leaves you on the same page.

Instead of using location.hash we should consider using
window.history.replaceState and element.scrollIntoView if they are both
available.

Using replaceState will update the url by replacing the current history entry
instead of creating a new one. It will disable the implicit jump so we'll have
to use scrollIntoView to create the same effect.
