Sascha added a comment.

  Hm... in the sidebar on Wikimedia Commons (see screenshot), would it perhaps 
make sense to replace the link to Special:WhatLinksHere by a link to 
Special:GlobalUsage? Currently, there seems to be a usability/UX issue: the 
feature is already implemented (thanks for the kind explanation on this bug, I 
had no idea!). However, people may might never use the Special:GlobalUsage 
unless they already know that it exists. Hence the suggestion to to remove 
“What links here” from the sidebar and replace it by “Global usage” which seems 
to be a superset. (There’s a risk of cluttering the user experience when the 
sidebar has too many links).
