Special:EditWatchlist doesn't work for power users (Community Wishlist/W273)

Description

If you have a lot of pages on your watchlist, Special:EditWatchlist may take forever to load, or time out and not load at all. Special:EditWatchlist/raw exists for such users, but without the benefit of talk/history and red links. Pagination like in Contributions, WhatLinksHere, etc. is one solution.
