            Bug ID: 47340
           Summary: Always output <span typeof="mw:Object/Template"> as
                    first element of template
           Product: Parsoid
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: JS/General

When the expanded contents of a template look like this:
[[Category:Foo]]
[[Category:Bar]]

The resulting HTML looks like:
<link rel="mw:WikiLink/Category" href="..." typeof="mw:Object/Template"
about="#mwt1" data-mw="..."><span about="#mwt1">
</span><link rel="mw:WikiLink/Category" href="..." about="#mwt1">

(where the span wraps a newline)

This generally happens whenever a category is the first thing in the template.
The first <link> node is a DOM node that represents both a template and a
category at the same time, which is not something VE is equipped to deal with
in a reasonable way. We could hack it such that it would, but in general one
DOM node representing two different things at once is not something we like
working with.
