The problem is that the api preview result is different from the Preview action. It seems the API does not insert the title into the wikitext, to be parsed and only shows the edit summary preview.

We should probably add the "section=new" option to the parse api, as we have in the edit api...
Alternatively, we can just hardcode it in the live preview module, but that doesn't seem long term sustainable to me, especially with the new link anchor, and possibility of moving from <h2> to a div/header wrapped h2.
