Reported by Risker: "when trying to exit pages with Flow on this project, I am now getting the standard microsoft "are you sure you want to leave this page?" pop-up, and I have to decide whether to leave or stay on the page before moving on. This has happened with both Firefox and IE9 in the last few days. Could we please not have that? It's one thing for a warning message when one is mid-edit and about to leave a page, but simply viewing a page shouldn't have this result." (The onbeforeunload confirmation was originally added in https://trello.com/c/xnvffWYB/ or https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/148983/ in case that helps.)
Currently Unconfirmed/Unreproduced. On trello at https://trello.com/c/327hZ6nv/
Created attachment 16437 [details] screenshot (Update with notes from Risker) This was the process: * View my notifications onwiki * follow link in my notifications messages to "Doug Weller created a new topic on Wikipedia talk:Wikiproject Breakfast * Read (only read!) the threads on the page. No attempt at all to type anything anywhere. * click "Watchlist" link in the upper right to return to my watchlist * Get this error message. (Note from Quiddity) I've tried again to reproduce, but cannot. :-/

After playing around a bit more, it seems to happen only when following a link from Notifications the first time; returning to the page either separately or through notifications does not seem to reproduce.
