            Bug ID: 71297
           Summary: Can't search in global rename log on the old account
                    name
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized

While the global rename tool has been developed, it's not possible to search in
the global rename log (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Log/gblrename)
on the old or new account name, with or without the User: prefix. It's only
possible to search on the name of the global renamer/steward, but as the log
will only grow more and more it's impossible to do that when you don't know the
name of the person who acted.

It was possible for the "old" rename tool to search on the old account name.
See for example
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=renameuser&page=User%3A123chess456
(with the User: prefix). While the same is not working for the global rename
tool:
