It's often experienced on most sites using additional information fill up forms in their user profiles that, when you hit submit for a form on a tab(secondary. say: Personal information), you are taken to your profile page, and you wanted to edit information in another tab(secondary) too! To do this, one has to move back into edit profile tab and do the next and once again! Somehow I overcome this by putting the argument in urls, because it's known that it'll work so.. But not to general users. Isn't this undesired and unexpected? User should be sent back to the same page(same tab) when submit is hit.
Also, I'm in need of such behavior of user edit form for a module that adds single value per submit is hit(where you can have multiple values, by uploading the data each time, as the new field pops in). Yes there are ways but this is just a use which is eased if this issue is addressed.
I'll hook a patch if others have any say for this..

Tobias Maier commentedyou're right, the current behavior is really annoying.
The patch is definitely a one liner.
I did not test the patch on a test installation, but looked at the patch.
