Forking (cloning) this bug from bug 11586, as bug 11586 was marked as invalid.

The underlying issue here is that on sites such as <https://en.wikinews.org/>
there is an "Opinions" tab on individual news articles that leads to a Comments
namespace page for each article. For example,
<https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Israel_launches_airstrikes_against_Gaza_Strip,_kills_Hamas_commander>
has an "Opinions" tab at the top of the page that leads to
<https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Comments:Israel_launches_airstrikes_against_Gaza_Strip%2C_kills_Hamas_commander>.

This tab is currently implemented using JavaScript when it should be available
in the native HTML output of the page. JavaScript should not be necessary to
add this tab to the interface.

I'm marking this bug as "easy" as it really shouldn't be more than an hour's
worth of work to get this extension fixed up and ready for review and
deployment. If anyone is looking to get his or her name on "Special:Version",
this is your chance!
