            Bug ID: 66674
           Summary: VisualEditor: Edit&vesection=0 does not behave as
                    expected
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

          Severity: normal

When a page is opened in the wikitext editor with section=0, the top of the
page is presented for editing The is the desired and expected behavior:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armadillo&action=edit&section=0

However, VisualEditor does not do this when vesection=0 is opened up for
editing. The cursor is placed at the top of the page, but the screen scrolls
down to the bottom of the page. The expected behavior is that the scree stay at
the top of the window:

This does not occur when using section=0:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Armadillo&veaction=edit&section=0

This is particularly important to the Russian Wikipedia, where they regularly
use edit&section=0 links and it's easy to wind up with vesection=0.

Here's the report on my ru.wp talk page, with ru.wp links:
