Without that it was much less readable. Edit is
obviously more important

than "Image list" or "New pages"
Actually, the latter is not obvious. The most important page from "Special
pages" is already in the quickbar (Preferences), the rest is of limited
interest to most users. I have no idea why "Image list" is in the quickbar
at all, and "New pages" is used quite a lot by some people.
Cologne Blue has no special pages combobox, so it needs big link to Special Pages.
Anyway, whatever the selection of links, using different fonts greatly improves
readability.
No, this new
policy is plain breaindead. There just has to be some wiki for
random code changes
Why? I frankly don't see the reason. If you want to make "random code
changes", there's no need to use the Wikimedia servers. Use your own
machine. If you want to demonstrate and test reasonably complete changes,
commit to CVS unstable and update the test.wiki accordingly.
Testing is part of developement process, not something to be done after
developement is finished.
Sure I could use one of my machines for testing, but it has been always
done on *.wikipedia.org, so why suddently change it ?
