Hmmm... though, redlinks actually use editredlink rather than edit.
No, it uses &action=edit&redlink=1. I don't see any conflict.
Ok then, &action=create will be a overriding action. Rather than being like a simple alias of edit which is meant for creation, it'll use an edit form, but it'll never throw an error if the suggested title already exists when you go to the page
Why not? Of course it shouldn't be an error that prevents you from continuing, but there should be a clear notice that an article by that name already exists and you may want to edit it instead.
(Actually if no-one minds, it would be a beautiful opportunity to change the "edit" tab on non-existent pages into a "create" tab for a more intuitive interface)
That's an easy change, someone could do that right now. In fact I've committed it in r31973.
