SourceUser:Terasail/HeaderIcons.js

This userscript adds the icon links (no text) from the vector user menu dropdown to the header and sticky header so that the user menu doesn't need to be opened to use the buttons.

It is ideal for lage width screens where the header appears empty and you often need to open the dropdown menu.
