"Add terms" behavior is confusing [#663988]

Starting from admin/structure/taxonomy:

1. I click the "add terms" link. This is confusing, because "terms" is plural, yet the form I arrive at only allows the creation of one term. Change to "add term"?

2. After I create the term, I am returned to the term's page. That is, if I create a term "Vegetable," I'm returned to an active form with with word "Vegetable" in the Term name. This is confusing, because when I've just submitted a term, why do I want to edit it again? (It turns out that if I enter "Mineral" in the "Term Name" field, I get a new term, but I'm not sure that's expected behavior.

3. Would it be possible, after creating a term, to either:

a.) Return me to the admin/structure/taxonomy/1 taxonomy page where I added the term, or

b.) Have two buttons, a la, "Save" (as at present) and "Save and create new term"? The latter would take me to a new term creation form in the same taxonomy.

actually a bug, the same form should be presented again but with emptied fields to start entering another term (that's why "add terms" is plural)
and you are not editing the term you just entered, you are entering a new terms which got its name already filled with the previous term name you used (and shouldn't be, as it wasn't in D6)

- add a new term "term1", hit save
- the same form is presented again with "term1" as Term Name, hit save, and another term "term1" is created
- the same form is presented again with "term1" as Term Name. WTF? how many times I have to enter it?

Note that each time a new term is being created with the same name.

I meant, each time a new term is being created with the same name OR whatever was the name changed to.
The bug is in the form being presented again non-emptied
