VisualEditor in Flow: CE arrives much later than controls
Closed, InvalidPublic

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.

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

Eep!

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