WikiEditor is not shown when you try to edit a user JS page; however, if you try to edit JS page in MediaWiki namespace (such as MediaWiki:Common.js or a Gadget JS page), the editor is shown which makes code editing hard.
Same applies for CSS pages.
Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement
At least for me, the toolbar is displayed on both [[MediaWiki:Page.js]] and [[User:Name/common.js]] (as expected, since this allow me to use edit tools/buttons when writing scripts)
WikiEditor appears to load correctly as expected on both user JS and site JS pages on live en.wikipedia.org and my local trunk testing last I looked.
(Note that the CodeEditor extension/gadget adds syntax highlighting for JS and CSS pages within WikiEditor, so you probably don't want to arbitrarily remove it!)
Works for me now as well (tried on Test Wikipedia). I wonder if someone fixed it somewhere down the road.

Maybe you was trying to use the old toolbar, which indeed doesn't show up on .js/.css pages? See bug 29908.
