On an edit page while logged in (with the monobook skin), pressing "Show Preview" (or "Show Changes" in 1.5alpha1) results in a missing watch/unwatch tab at the top. This is a minor issue, as the checkbox is still available.

Created attachment 692 [details] REL1_4 patch for SkinTemplate.php fixes problem on 1.4 preview
Created attachment 693 [details] HEAD patch for SkinTemplate.php Fixes problem on 1.5 edit : both preview and show-diff.
(above patch comments out an explicit check for action=submit) Is there a reason that condition is there in the first place?
The condition had been in SkinTemplate.php from the first version, but I've now checked the older history from SkinPHPTal.php. In 1.70.2.11 and 1.107, it was changed from "... $action != 'edit' and $action != 'submit'" in a fix for bug 270. Those conditions were present in the first version of SkinPHPTal.php and I don't where to find previous history of the templated Monobook skin, if there is any. Other Monobook tabs do not have this condition. Other skins do not suppress the watch link.
Committed to REL1_5 and HEAD.
