This is the API call we'll need to use:

{
	"action": "parse",
	"page": "Page being previewed",
	"templatesandboxtitle": "Template:Template being edited",
	"templatesandboxtext": "New wikitext of template being edited"
}

Is anything happening here? I have made a lot of unnecessary template edits already because of the lack of a preview function. If it is not introduced, I guess template pages should either use the CodeEditor or the old wikitext mode per default , otherwise template editing will never properly work.
