--- Comment #2 from James Forrester jforres...@wikimedia.org ---
Cite.php is designed a certain (bad) way. It has issues, and we will replace it
at some point, but the way to fix its issues is not to make horrible hacks in
wikitext using loopholes over-looked when the code was written to try to
re-design in.

This is one of those cases, and is not sanely supportable in VisualEditor, so
I'm going to mark this as WONTFIX. I know I previously said lowest, but I
don't think that that's a justifiable direction for the product to go in.

--- Comment #1 from James Forrester jforres...@wikimedia.org ---
As discussed previously, supporting this wikitext hack is exceptionally
difficult to do, and it would be much more sensible to spend the effort on a
proper cross-page, cross-wiki citations system instead which would solve the
same problem (and lots more). However, it's not impossible, so keeping open as
a lowest-priority enhancements.
