I don't run an svn checkout of CodeReview, but if you say the situation
described in my initial comment is fixed, then I'm fine with this being closed.

Clicking a link (not pressing enter and/or submitting a form) makes me expect
that I'm going to somewhere else and current filter/settings are
ignored/unrelated to that.

However, the logic of other (core) Special:-pages with filters (such as
RecentChanges and NewPages) - do do that. They manipulate filters mostly by
links, not form elements (which is actually inefficient, since that requires
multiple reloads when changing multiple settings, but that's for another bug).
Meaning, user expectation, based on the bahaviour of core Special:-pages, may
be to preserve that. I can understand to choose to preserve author-filter when
clicking a Path-link, even though I personally (like you) can't think why it
should.

If anyone believes that it should preserve form values on links, feel free to
re-open this bug.
For now closing becuase of FIXED in trunk.
