user experience

There are now at least three ways to edit a page via index.php (not including
other crazy things like Wikidata). I couldn't find a bug tracking this user
experience issue, so I'm filing this one.
The three ways I'm initially focused on are:
* directly editing the wikitext (which can appear as an "edit source" page tab
when VisualEditor is enabled);
* VisualEditor [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor]; and
* CodeEditor [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CodeEditor] (automatic
for pages in the Module namespace and soon the CSS/JS pages as well; has a
toggle in the edit toolbar).
In particular to switch to editing the source, I'm worried about divergent
approaches in the user interface. For example, a page tab v. a toggle in the
edit toolbar.
