Modification of RecentChanges button Submitted

Edit wish Discuss this wish

Description

I am proposing a quality of life modification of the button on Special:RecentChanges in the top-right corner that allows changing maximum edits and timespan. Per current behaviour the button always closes after making a change, which is mildly annoying when changing from 50 edits/7 days to 500 edits/30 days on especially smaller wikis as users need to click twice the same popup window to change the same thing. I believe a user should be able to change both parameters and then click outside of the popup window. It is a small change, but a good quality of life improvement to all users who use RecentChanges on daily basis and is their primary tool dealing with vandalism.
