--- Comment #17 from Timeshifter <[email protected]> ---
Here is a page that has a table and a couple transcluded navigation-box
templates at the bottom:
[[List of countries by incarceration rate]]

With VisualEditor (VE) the table is editable and WYSIWYG.

But with VE the existing text in the 2 navigation boxes at the bottom of the
page can not be edited as far as I can tell. At least not within VE from that
page. I am talking about after clicking the edit icons for the navigation
boxes. 

In VE new parameters can be added to one of the templates, but not to the
other. I don't see a way to edit the text for existing parameters in either
navigation box. 

So to be able to edit one of those templates better in source mode or VE it
would be helpful to have links to the template pages. It would be more helpful
if those links were more easily accessible than they are now. 

See related bug 49772 - "VisualEditor: Template dialogs should include a link
to the [template:name] page". But that is only talking about links to the
top-level templates. 

Sometimes I also want links to component templates for various reasons. Such as
to be able to read more documentation, choose better templates, etc.. All those
templates need to be more accessible by having the template list for a section
show up when first clicking the edit link for a section.
