Issue: Unable to switch from wikitext section to visual editor section

Steps to reproduce 1. Edit section using wikitext editor 2. Click the dropdown to switch to visual editor

Expected Loads just a section in VE

Actual Loads the whole article in visual editor.

Note, this only happens after toggling the desktop mode, when clicked on the footer. So this might not be a 100% relevant to mobile devices.

A lot of established editors use the desktop system on their mobile devices, so it's possible that this will happen more than it might be expected.

I'm having trouble reproducing this issue because when I try to switch modes, I get the prompt to save. This is documented in phabricator.

197.235, if you see this, could you tell us what your web browser and OS is? For example, Safari on iOS or Chrome on Windows 10.
