            Bug ID: 52085
           Summary: VisualEditor: Frequent edit summary buttons
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: MediaWiki integration

Wikipedias in some languages, among them Polish, Russian, Ukrainian and Hebrew,
have a gadget that shows a list of frequent edit summaries near the edit
summary field in source editing mode.

Here are the source samples:

Polish: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-edit-summaries.js
Hebrew: https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-Summarieslist.js

Many users in the Hebrew Wikipedia complained about the lack of this gadget in
the VisualEditor. This could be an enhancement request, but given that for
several languages it's an integral part of the editing interface for these
languages, it's a regression for them.

Adding this as a feature should be very easy, given that it's quite simple and
the existing gadgets' code can be reused. Localization and customization for
every project can be done on a MediaWiki page with a list of summaries for that
project.
