Reproduced just now on English Wikipedia using IE8 on two different client PCs.

1. Visit the wikipedia page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug and edit it. (Any
other article will do, but this report has part that are to the "Bug" article.)

2. Click the Advanced menu to show the Heading dropdown

3. Click inside textbox to put the cursor at the beginning of the first line

4. In the Heading dropdown, choose "Heading 2" (or anything else)

What SHOULD happen: "== Heading text ==" should be inserted in the first line.

What DOES happen: the textbox cursor leaps down to line 26 and inserts "==
Heading text ==" in the middle of a word, ending up like this:

* [[Bug (2002 film)|''Bug'' (2002 film)]], a comedy-drama about a chain of
events begun by a b
== Heading text ==
