Renaming bug to reflect the problem that Commons intended to be solved.
Use case:
* John uploads 3 files
* One of the files is fixed by a bot or modified by anyone (ie. rotated or
re-upload higher resolution from Flickr)
* John now sees only two files at Special:ListFiles/John, the one modified
later is gone!
The bug is caused by a technical problem, the fact that the File-information
databases are still using the 'current / old' table structure, rather than the
'revision' structure (see bug 26741, which requires a major major change to the
database schema)
Just like for Special:Contributions for listing page edits from
page/revision/text, files should show past uploads as well from
file/fileuploads.
One could argue though that ListFiles is the counter part of AllPages, as such
it shouldn't show old revisions, just the current files. If we decide that,
then I propose the following:
* SpecialContributions needs better support for files and a filter for
files/edits
* SpecialMyUploads should NOT link to SpecialListFiles.
Short: SpecialMyUploads does not show all uploads. Either it needs to or it
needs to renamed/retargetted.
