           Summary: Automatically add section title to edit summary

Editing with Visual Editor on the English Wikipedia on
firefox-22.0-1.fc18.x86_64 on Fedora Linux here.

The source editor provides a default edit summary like "/* History */" when
using the [edit] link next to section headers.  Visual Editor doesn't do this. 
I'm immediately missing this because I usually assume that's there, and it's a
bit annoying to have to go find that to copy-and-paste it.  Many people don't
provide an edit summary if they are editing a section, and having it there
automatically I find very helpful when tracing problems through article
history.  (It makes it obvious who has editing a given section, and when
sections changed title.)
