[WIP] In VisualEditor, show <section> elements and let them be edited

will this task be worked again?

It seems to me that the latest versions of VisualEditor and Parsoid provides basic support (with an editing UI) for the <section> tag.

For example: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:Dictionary_of_Christian_Biography_and_Literature_(1911).djvu/161?veaction=edit (there is a <section begin=""> tag at the beginning of the page's body.

But we should definitely create a nicer UI for them.

I tried this page and unfortunately it was just changed today so that the <section> tag at the beginning was removed; so I created another page on that Wiki with a section tag:

https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Sectiontest&veaction=edit

unfortunately I don't see that the section tag is handled at all; it doesn't seem to be rendered. Can you take a look?

Ok, it seems to me that the alienextensionnode editor is activated on the Page: namespace but not on the main namespace (or something like that).

But as we should definitely create an editing widget for this tag, we will fix this issue at the same time.

how would you activate the alienextensionnode editor/module on a Wiki? I've played around with the $wgVisualEditorPluginModules array, but cannot get it to work.
