(Is this a bug in the core MW feedback tool?)

I'm not sure what "core MW feedback tool" means, but I was talking about the feedback feature for [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback]].

Yes, this is a core MediaWiki feature, it just happens to be used by VisualEditor:

resources/mediawiki/mediawiki.feedback.js

But there is:

modules/ve/init/mw/targets/ve.init.mw.ViewPageTarget.js:

		'title': new mw.Title( ve.msg( 'visualeditor-feedback-link' ) ),

shouldn't something like:

new mw.Title( ve.msg( 'visualeditor-feedback-link' ).inContentLanguage() )

be used?

Yes, that would fix this particular problem; my question is more as to whether the core tool should default for target link to be in the content language.

Based on what I see in the usage given above, you're giving a Title to core feedback tool, which points to a certain page, instead of a message name to core with feedback page name in that message.

Merged and will go out in wmf5.

pl.wiki is on 1.22wmf8 but my feedback was posted to a non-existing page with Italian title (I have Italian UI), [[pl:Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Commenti]]: https://pl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Commenti&oldid=36959657

Confirmed, this is also happening to me. Did the code get broken somehow?

Somewhere between https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/68216/ and its parent (I can't seem to find the commit that added it) the message was added in VisualEditor.php's resource module definition. Which caused the message from VisualEditorMessagesModule (in content-language) to be overridden at run time by the one from ResourceLoader for user language.
