Bug: '&action=edit' and '&oldid=#' do not work well together

Description

Something I accidentally discovered. If one tries to "&action=edit" a page with an "&oldid=#" tag (the oldid number doesn't exist) they get the error message in the text box:

http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:White_Cat/nl&action=edit&oldid=11473090

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

That's probably because that revision doesn't exist in the database. You see the same when you remove the action=edit.

I think I am well aware of that. It should just display an error not an editable page. Right?
