(a) open a page in VE and edit it
(b) save in VE
(c) reopen the same page right away in VE
The previous version (rather than saved version) is fetched. I looked at POST params in chrome and looks like revision id (oldid) being sent is of the older version rather than the saved version.
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
Feels like we need to properly review how the integration around oldids works, given the number of issues. :-(
The JSON we get back after a save only contains the plain html and some timestamps. In order for us to update this.oldid we'll need Parsoid to tell us what it is, I think.

Parsoid doesn't know; it's VisualEditor.php which does the actual saving to the DB.

This bug was closed as fixed on May 3 but I am still seeing this behavior on mediawiki.org. The second edit after saving loads the previous version of the page, not the current version. A warning "You are editing an out-of-date revision of this page" appears, but that doesn't help.
