            Bug ID: 69611
           Summary: Move message box before header
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.24-git
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW

Actually the messagebox ($this->data['message']) comes after "header" (which
can be set by an Extension, e.g. GoogleLogin). The message box is used (e.g.)
to show messages like "Please login to change your preferences." when the user
requested Special:Preferences and isn't logged in.

I would suggest to move this message box before the header (after warningbox
with "you are already logged in"). Reason: An Extension like GoogleLogin
extends the Login form with several form fields, but the message, that the user
has to login to finish his action is somewhere in the middle of the form (after
the extension output). This looks crappy. Another solution could be to add
another section like "afterMessages" or something like. Would be great to have
a better solution for this :)
