           Summary: Hook GetPreferences problem: when an extension adds a

I discovered a problem, here in my Extension:OpenID.

The problem is that the E:OpenID adds a new pref tab ("OpenID"), which works
fine since many years, but the <legend>section header texts</legend> are not
shown, and the skin looks as if the user skin is fully ignored.

I never reported this, because I did not notice the effect until today.

The effect (no <legend> texts shown) can be seen live in

http://openid-wiki.instance-proxy.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-openid

when you compare this pref tab with one of the other pref tabs.

I have no idea how this can be solved. 

For me it looks as a 

+ bug in the core

which effects extensions in loosing skin or context in their new section(s)

when the extension 

+ uses Hook:GetPreferences ; and 
+ adds a new section e.g. "OpenID"
