Ok, re-sumit the (potentially outdated) form information by refreshing the page
or by browser recovery is a good argument against a simple POST.

When a new submit though JavaScript with mw.notify for notification is
implemented, most users with JavaScript enabled don't use the browser submit
anymore.

Of course, a fallback for non-JavaScript must exist. What about a page
/w/index.php?title=Special:Preferences&success=1 with just a success message
and without the preference settings? So the user has to load
/wiki/Special:Preferences again for changing further settings. With this
combination it not possible to have unsaved changed settings and a success
message on the same screen, which is confusing.
