Seems that "&section=0" works inconsistently between "&action=raw" and "&action=edit"


According to the manual
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Parameters_to_index.php

"&section=0" should return the first section (introduction) only, and does so for other &action's, such as &action=edit. But for &action=raw it returns not the first section, but the entire article markup.

Confirmed on #mediawiki:

<RoanKattouw> FT2: action=edit&section=0 behaves as expected: confirmed
<RoanKattouw> action=raw&section=0 returns entire page: confirmed as well
<RoanKattouw> The entire article, all sections
<RoanKattouw> I suggest you go ahead and file ;)
