See URL above with autoconfirmed but not sysop user: the field "Filter ID" is missing. The issue is with this code in SpecialAbuseLog.php: if ($this->canSeeDetails()) $this->mSearchFilter = $wgRequest->getIntOrNull( 'wpSearchFilter' ); Which means that users without abusefilter-log-detail right also cannot filter the AbuseLog by specific filter, which doesn't seem to make sense.
It's because users without that right aren't allowed to see which filter matched which edit. They just see "matched a filter", rather than "matched filter X"
I think "filtering by ID" isn't belong to "detailed log". Because anyone can find the mathced abusefilter's name (public description) at "Filter description" in the every AbuseLog's entries without abusefilter-log-detail (but with abusefilter-log). So it's very easy to find "which filter matched which edit". Additionally, the api result can filter by ID without abusefilter-log-detail. No filtering: http://ja.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=abuselog filtering by #4: http://ja.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=abuselog&aflfilter=4 This means it's unuseful to hide "filtering by ID" in [[Special:AbuseLog]] to hide something detailed, but only inconvenient. I agree to comment #0. This bug should be fixed.

For those who are slow (like me), the following will show the problem clearly: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseLog and http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseLog?uselang=en vs http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Especial:AbuseLog?uselang=en ptwiki is missing the "Filter ID" field that enwiki and ruwiki have. As a result, on ruwiki, you can see links to examine the details of the filter.
The behaviour is by design. I'm open to changing it, though. The real question is whether or not it makes sense to separate the ability to see which filter a specific edit tripped from the ability to view all edits that tripped a particular filter.
How is the configuration of ptwiki different from enwiki and ruwiki? Is it simply that the rights on ptwiki are different than the others?
Mark: yes, see bug 17998 which we had to file because of this bug; plus you can compare http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ListGroupRights?uselang=en and [[Special:ListGroupRights]]
