While I still believe that the way this was done is the correct one (seamless warning with JS; additional confirmation step without JS), given the lack of consensus that is apparent now and wasn't apparent earlier (Steven was the only person who commented negatively on the patch) I'll rework it with a less disruptive workflow (seamless warning with JS, as before; a static short plaintext information with no confirmation step or exact warning without JS) and link the resulting patch here. Some useful comments were also left on the changeset and the bug after the revert (primarily by Jon), I'll try to address these as well (some help with the copy would be appreciated).
I have resubmitted this, sans the controversial part, split into two parts, as https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/117437 and https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/117438 . Humbly requesting some help with the wording of the messages.
