Summary: Section edit links should pick correct section, or give
warning, if sections have changed between view and edit
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: Page editing
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]

Currently if you click a section edit link, and sections have been added or
removed ahead of it between your page load and your click, you'll end up at a
different section than you expected.
It may not be 100% scientifically possible to always know which is the 'same'
section, but if the number of sections has changed we should be able to at
least estimate with confidence that things may not be as the user expected and
give them a warning.
If we can find the right section (most of the time the heading text will be the
same), then we could also pop over to it.
Including a version number or timestamp onto the link would probably be
necessary to implement this.
