In the case of an edit conflict, the structure of the VE means that the common workaround (taking discrete wikimarkup changes, copying them, opening the newly revised article, pasting them in) doesn't work. What's the plan to handle ECs in the VE?

What do you mean, 'plan'? Have you not encountered one yet? It works very simply: on saving, you get a message like "Sorry, the page couldn't be saved because of an edit conflict. Click here to resolve manually" and then takes you to the normal wikitext edit conflict page, with the wikitext of your new version below and the new current version above, as always.
It's been this way for months. There are enough bugs filed without adding ones. :-)
