By the way, this is additionally annoying because users in the "Edit interface" user group[1] have the permission to deal with protection and moving, but not deleting. Where normally I can move a page belonging in the MediaWiki namespace to it (suppressing redirect of course, since #REDIRECT is invalid js/css), I now have to resort to copy/paste moves and leaving the old page behind (maybe blanking it or asking a sysop to clean it up, which is a waste of time and only requires additional duplication of efforts and explanation).
