Need a way to edit in source code mode before publishing

As title. The visual editor is fine for most of things but some can only be done or easily done in code mode.

Sometimes, errors in templates even prevent me to publish my translation, and without proper source code mode it's extremely hard to fix these errors, therefore I can't even "publish first then go to the source code mode to edit later".

A workaround: translate only the text, publish to your draft space, say User:Fireattack/Article title. Then open in source code, clean up and move. But other than that you're right, some easier debugging of the text would be great.

Please, this would be a great addition, the visual editor should have some way to add code onto the translation.
