            Bug ID: 51835
           Summary: Changing login status / losing session data during
                    edit: breaks VE silently
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: MediaWiki integration

Edits that would trigger this error silently break VE:
"Sorry! We could not process your edit due to a loss of session data."

On save, it shows animation indicating it is saving, but then does not save,
leaving you in the editing screen.  It doesn't refresh to update your session
data, so the edit will never succeed; and it doesn't show you the error
message.

To reproduce: start an edit, then logout, and try to complete; or v-v (and more
common) start one as an anon, then log in.
