[[Special:AllMessages]] currently has a text "show [50] itens per page" by default (from [[MediaWiki:Table pager limit]], I think). If we change the number to [all], and click [Go], it just reloads the page with parameter "limit=5000", which nowadays is not large enough to show *all items* in one page (note: even after selecting *all* items the user still needs to go to a "Next page" to view more items...). Please fix two things: * Make the option "all" to show *all* messages, no matter how many messages there exist; * When this option is selected, the sentence "Show all items per page" should be just "Show all items", because there is only one page.

n r64181, this was changed to say "5000" instead of "All" We don't actually want "All" here. We need limits :) WONTFIX.
Fair enough ;-)
We should however allow to search in the message contents, which is why the "All" option was added. Repurposing bug.
It is already possible to filter by prefix. For text-search there is already a search function that goes through the MediaWiki-namespace. however that one only searches through modifiedmessages (ie. existing pages). So far my work around has been searching on translatewiki (as the pages do exist there). but this has the sideeffect that it often get's me only 1 result instead of 25 with 25 items per page (meaning, it gives me 25 languages of 1 item). So being able to search right in the core would really be a good improvement as this one allows picking a language.
