Just as a heads-up: When I copied the code from Jim's email it didn't quite work, at some point the longer lines were cut off and put onto the next line, which messed up the code.
I had to move the third line and the eighth lines up. To see a copy with correct line brakes, go here<http://www.wikieducator.org/User:ScottGeoffrey/monobook.js> . Thanks Jim for the pointer, we'll see if that changes how I interact with my user page. My only current complaint is that the new link has been added alongside the tabs used to access alternate views of the page and not up by the link to my userpage. Is there some easy way to change this? I've looked into the code, but can´t figure it out well enough to decide on what to change.
