Steps to reproduce:
1.Open a page with VE
2.Go to Insert>Media
3.Enter a search term
4.Select the first image that appears on the search result
4.Click on Change image immediately
5.Enter a different search term
6.Now try to select the first image on of the new search results
Observed Result:
It throws an error:Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'context' of undefined
and cannot select that image
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
This seems to be the same jQuery/API issue we've had with calling the mw API consecutively. When the API is queried more than once the callback function goes haywire.
In debug mode when clicking the 'change image' (#4 in the above reproduce list), the console error is
"Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function"

That undefined function error is not related in any way, that's bug 59604.
When I tried to reproduce this bug (before the merge of the above fix), I kept getting this error in chrome:
Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?callback=jQuery1111024360889615491033_14067…set=0&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=dimensions%7Curl%7Cmediatype&iiurlheight=150:1

And only after that I get an 'uncaught type error' that seems to be related to missing details in the image (like the caption document). It only happens right after the first API bug. I wasn't able to reproduce it after the 150054 fix was introduced.
The API response just before the bug appears seems to suggest that the information from the API is maybe mismatch to the loaded image, which is why I thought it was related.
The bug doesn't happen with this fix anymore (I can't reproduce it in master or in beta labs now that it's merged)
