I don't know if it is by design, but currently pressing "Restore all default settings (in all sections)" on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences/reset does not remove any CSS/JS the user might have added. In cases like https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=20979984#Ajuda_com_suicida and https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=603745854#Help_me it would be helpful if that button would restore even our custom scripts and styles (blanking the pages, not deleting them - to keep their history).

If we decide this is a good idea to implement, I imagine it's an easy task (worthy of the Bugzilla keyword). I'm still undecided whether it's expected that restoring user preferences would blank/reset these pages. Would it apply to all skin subpages associated with the user (some users could have common, monobook, and vector subpages)? Would the description text at [[Special:Preferences/reset]] need updating? Tangentially, I suppose GlobalPreferences would then blank/reset global user subpages?
