WWT: Really old text does not become highlighted or make a popup on mouseover
Open, Needs TriagePublicBUG REPORT

Description

Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):

What happens?:
Text does not become highlighted on mouseover.

When clicked, the popup appears in a distant location and indicates http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Diff/230919657.
Limited highlighting corresponding to text actually inserted by that revision (which is not what I clicked!) appears.

What should have happened instead?:
There should be an indication for something that exists before the last-fetched revision. Like, "(Present before revision [id here] [date here])"

Ideally I'd like to see the revision ID of the originating edit -- the exact date, author, and size are relatively irrelevant for things this old, so detail-fetching may not even be needed (see section Comment).

Software version (on Special:Version page; skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia): SKIP

Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.):
Windows 11, WWT 0.23.5.0, Firefox 154.0b6 (64-bit)

Carl Christian Rafn only shows 20856463 and no one else; I am trying to find revisions from Hauganm (seen at diff 417438888).

It is fully working at George T. Flom, so this is inconsistent it seems.
