Show breadcrumbs in editor preview even before page has been created

Description

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Subpages says

Breadcrumb links will appear automatically at the top of the subpage, linking to each parent page that exists. These links do not appear, however, if the parent pages have not yet been created or if the subpage feature is turned off.

Well they also should appear on the preview one gets when preparing to create a new page we are editing. MediaWiki 1.19. Maybe fixed by now?

Event Timeline

In fact even if we see breadcrumbs when viewing an existing page, they disappear when in the editor. or preview. Yes, saves one line of screen, but then one sees a less realistic preview... and thinks "looks like I will need to put some breadcrumbs there by hand."
