When on an RTL wiki, and I specify uselang=en, the URL should be redirected to the uselang URL. Example:
http://robinpepermans.be/mw-dev/index.php?title=%D8%AE%D8%A7%D8%B5%3A%D8%B3%D8%AC%D9%84&type=&user=&page=PrefixExport+extension&year=&month=-1&uselang=en
should be redirected to
http://robinpepermans.be/mw-dev/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=&user=&page=PrefixExport+extension&year=&month=-1&uselang=en
Otherwise, modifying the URL is a pain.

(The URLs may not work any more soon.)
In other words, special page titles should be in user language instead of content language.
The problem, however, is when you copy the URL that is not English nor in the content language, it will not work for other users.
URLs are kind of sacred area, intended for both humans and computers. I'd avoid doing anything overly clever there.
The value of title= should work regardless of what's in uselang.
Consider the following with a dutch title:
