Description

this may be more appropriate to assign to VisualEditor than Flow:

in a fresh instance of the Chrome browser, log in and go to page http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Talk:Flow_QA

click Start a new topic
watch the spinner as VisualEditor loads up
when the spinner stops and the editor controls are visible, attempt to type in the ContentEditable surface

only some seconds after the spinner stops and the controls appear is it possible to place the cursor in the CE surface and begin typing.

Eep!

Clarification; the model as deployed on production intentionally does not support VE until we have some breathing room for it ;p
