Screenshot

Transclusion dialog shouldn't render empty text nodes.

The transclusion dialog will show an empty text node at the end. That node can be removed, which results in no changes in wikitext.

(Re-rendering of these table cell templates is broken, by the way, filed separately as bug 67856.)

(Found when playing with bug 67850.)

I think this really should be "Parsoid should not emit zero-length content blocks in transclusions", surely?
