User Feedback

 * doesn't work with MW 1.9.3 (I suppose it was tested on 1.6?)
 * MW 1.10.0 OK


 * DANGEROUS BUG FOUND! Doesn't work when editing individual sections and using the cancel button. It always remembers the text from the first section. To reproduce: Press the Edit link on a section on a page, press the cancel button, then try to edit the text from another section.JR 10:33, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
