I never touched my preference for the "After changing default" action (nor any
other preference for that matter). 
It is set to "Site Default (show next bug in my list)".

The problem is that this site default is DEMENTIAL.
Every time I post a comment to a bug, I am redirected to the "next bug in my
list", which basically means some other random unrelated bug.
That means that, if after commenting to a bug I want to post an attachment, or
another comment, I have to go back to the bug. Usually I don't even check and I
assume I am still on the same bug, because the default behavior of 100% of all
other bugtrackers I have ever seen after commenting to a bug is to display the
same bug, which is the obvious expected behavior. So I often end up uploading
an attachment (or posting a second comment) to a random unrelated bug.

Now I know I can change it, but one shouldn't be supposed to explore the
preferences and figure this out in order to change a demential behavior to the
obvious expected one.

I don't even get why such an option exists, though I understand that having
more options, no matter how weird, is always a good thing: there can always be
a minority of users who may take advantage of them. But this should definitely
not be the DEFAULT.
