Visual Editor seems to defeat attempts at short URLs

I used this guide to setup nice short URLs setup for my wiki like /w/Main_Page and /w/Main_Page/edit, but VisualEditor seems to force URLs like index.php?title=Main_Page&veaction=edit, which when clicked on does a redirect to /w/Main_Page?veaction=edit which is still fairly ugly. Is there any way to work around this? I can find zero mentions of this behavior anywhere across MediaWiki or in any other documentation.

I reported a similar issue as task T270376 I am pretty sure that you are currently out of luck.
