Description

If you have:

== Hello == <!-- foo -->

And you click the resulting section-edit link, the edit summary field won't pre-fill with "/* Hello */ " as expected. Instead, it'll be blank.

The Translate extension encounters this issue frequently. :-( This bug report is probably a duplicate.
