We could also unburden Special:Preferences, which is currently used as a
dashboard that displays (among other things): user ID, user groups, date of
account creation, edit count, and some other pieces of info (including some
actual settings, the toggles of which should remain in Special:Preferences). I
think there's a general push to simplify the user preferences, so this would be
a good step in that direction (cc'ing Brandon H., who's also thought about this
kind of thing in relation to GlobalProfile).

While I can't say the info action is a perfect fit, most of the
architecture/infrastructure you need to actually get this bug resolved is in
it. It's now live on Wikimedia wikis and in MediaWiki core, it's a reasonable
fit, and with maybe an hour or two worth of work, adding an additional section
with user info when viewing a page in NS_USER or NS_USER_TALK would be pretty
simple.

So... unless there's a strong opposition to this path forward, I'm going to go
ahead and mark this bug as easy. :-)
