There is a distinct difference between editing a *page* and editing a *thread* and editing a *post within a thread*. This is a complicated problem, but putting the edit and history links at the top of the page is not going to solve your problem as described.

Sorry Brandon, you misunderstood. The requester wanted to have the single additional buttons [^edit] and [^history] on top of the "standard, non-lqt" mediawiki page, i.e. the action=edit and action=history for the current page. I support this wish, as I often was puzzled where to find this unusual links, when they were not tabs.

Take this example:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:User_Merge_and_Delete

User coming to that page do _not_ see how they can add or edit the page - they need to go down the whole page to find [^edit] and [^history] links (after having Lqt activated on this page.

The bug aims to ask the Lqt developers to find a solution, that these two links are tabs of the page, on top of the page.
