Hello Vitaliy,

Your patch is already in my patch queue, but before submitting, I would like to
understand better in which situations this bug trigger, since I can't reproduce
it here.

To get an edit token in the comment form to submit a comment, the user needs to
have a session with MediaWiki. This session is either anonymous, or it is a
user login session created at login time. This session either ends with the
browser session, or after 30 days.

In theory, the user shouldn't have a session failure under normal
circumstances. If he got an edit token from the comment form, that edit token
should be valid along with his session until he closes the browser.

I want to be careful applying code that touches the session handling code due
to the danger of creating a [[w:Cross-site scripting]] vulnerability. But at
first glance your patch seems good.

Could you provide some more detailed steps on how to reproduce this problem
with the current version of MediaWiki?
