I proposed this on mediawiki-l. What are your thoughts on this as frequent users of the MediaWiki interface?

I've just been setting up an intranet MediaWiki, and it's already very popular and making me popular in turn. Thanks, MediaWiki developers!
A co-worker just made a suggestion which strikes me as a good idea for MediaWiki in general:
You know how the edit pages have "cancel" as a clickable link? It should really be a button. Web forms generally have "cancel" buttons rather than links. (He didn't notice "cancel" was there at first and was wondering if he needed to hit the "back" button.)
Thoughts? Objections to this? Worth filing in Bugzilla as a feature request?
