The "Go" button that is now visible on

creation. It allows you to visit a page directly by typing its name, e.g. "Main

Consider this surprise beta testing; it appears to have been installed
by accident on the English wiki only. I will be happy to remove it if
anyone complains, as I consider it unnecessary and cluttery. :)
The currently active version is not the latest one.

What's the use? Well, if you have certain pages
you visit frequently, or
jump back and forth a lot, this makes navigation easier. Anyone who has in the
past run a search just to visit a particular page should appreciate this
change.
Are there no URL input bars? Are there no poorhouses?
