Description

This is a bug, convert to a bug.

As VE user I want to be able to update details content, if there's identical main content in Wikitext.

Input

<ref details="page 1" name="book">Miller</ref>
<ref details="page 2" name="book">Miller</ref>

Action
Edit both details in VE.

Expected outcome
The main content should stay untouched on save.

Currently saving the changed details would result in Wikitext where the 2nd main content is overwritten by the 2nd details.

<ref details="page 1 changed" name="book">Miller</ref>
<ref details="page 2 changed" name="book">page 2 changed</ref>
