Description:
If the name of a page in the image namespace is manually given as an argument to
the Movepage special page (ie. Special:Movepage/Image:someimage.jpg), the page
handles issues badly. If you try to move the image page to another page in the
image namespace that does not exist (essentially renaming it), it tells you:
Destination title is of a special type; cannot move pages into that namespace.
It would probably be better and more accurate to give an error if a page in the
Image namespace is loaded as the argument to Movepage when it is loaded, saying
that you cannot move image pages, instead of giving a semi-irrelevant error
after one tries to move the image.
Even worse, if you try to move the image to a new title in the main namespace,
it gives you the same error, saying that the destination title is of a special
type, when in reality, it isn't.
