When actively using the "2017 wikitext editor" to edit a page, the interface is still in "wgAction":"view" mode. Is this intentional?

With Javascript, how to I realize that the interface is in "edit" mode while using the "2017 wikitext editor" to edit a page? For the old editors, I was able to use if(mw.config.get('wgAction') === 'edit'){ /* do something */ }, but that does not work any longer.

User:Whatamidoing (WMF), you seem to be moderating these discussions. Can you please help me with my question here? Thanks a lot!

I think that the links in the summary by 197.218 will be more useful to you than anything I could tell you.

Yes this is more or less what I am looking for. It does not really work for me yet, but I think I know meanwhile how to go about it…
